Tea has long been a source of comfort, healing, and relaxation. MulTEA enhances the experience with a built-in labyrinth—thread your tea bag string through the winding path to focus your mind while your tea steeps. Once ready, use the MulTEA tool to squeeze excess liquid from your tea bag and set it aside mess-free. A thoughtful way to steep, sip, and unwind.

An assorted group of hand held whimsical objects that have an ability to delight and provoke curiosity in many.

Tracing a labyrinth pathway while waiting for tea to steep is a way to bring peace of mind, an internal calm, and relaxation.
I wanted to explore a realm of design which would provide an easier way of handling tea bags after they have steeped.
