Library Leaves was a new tea brand created by the Founder of London boutique gym, The Library. The range of teas aims to complement the active lifestyle of urban health-conscious professionals. Made of high-quality ingredients sourced from around the world and blended in the UK, Library Leaves help to promote relaxation, detoxing, boost energy and metabolism.

The packaging structures, designed by Pearlfisher, are an eclectic mix of beautiful and sustainable hand-crafted jars and wooden lids. Each structure is one of a kind, creating shelf standout and making them sought-after collectible pieces. This unique packaging is sourced from People of the Sun, an African charity that helps artisans who make products by hand preserve their cultural heritage and lift themselves out of poverty through trade.

In this interview, we sit down and talk to Karen Welman, Co-founder of Pearlfisher about The Library of Leaves Project and what role sustainability plays in their design process.
