Project Description

Returning to campus after a long time, the transformation was undeniable-new buildings and advanced facilities reshaped the landscape. Yet, one place remained unchanged, evoking nostalgia: the old tea stall. This simple stall was more than a spot for tea; it was a sanctuary for unwinding amidst the pressures of university life. 

We often gathered there to release stress, chat with friends, or enjoy the serene atmosphere. It was a favorite hangout for students, faculty, and visitors alike, providing a calming escape from the hectic pace of campus life. One of the stall's highlights was the fresh, organic tea, which made each day feel rejuvenating and refreshed, a simple pleasure that grounded us during busy moments. 

The stall was also a hub for discussions on social topics, career advice, and even informal outdoor classes held by professors. The cozy, informal setting encouraged easy conversations and eye contact, breaking the formality of campus life and fostering a sense of connection. 

Despite its simplicity, the tea stall embodied a rural charm that made it a comfortable retreat. It was more than just a place to drink tea-it became a symbol of camaraderie, relaxation, and memories. Those moments shared with friends and mentors in that cozy spot will always remain etched in our hearts, a cherished part of our university journey.
