During London Design Festival, Manchester-based artist Helen Musselwhite curates a window display installation for T2's Regent Street shop. Without a doubt, the creation builds on design principles and cultural narratives, communicating not only the philosophy behind the Australian tea brand but also adding a much-needed dose of color.

Helen Musselwhite exclusively works with [paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pastille) and her expertise can be attested to through her playfully whimsical creations. For the window display installation, she chooses an aesthetically pleasing and strongly fantastical arrangement of [fruit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-grounds) and warm beverage-related objects. The inspiration is drawn from T2's "extensive library of teas and teaware." In the quest for employing a multicultural approach to presentation, Helen Musselwhite draws parallels between region-specific tea influences.
