The teplo Teapot has been selected for the “JIDA Design Museum Selection Vol.23,” hosted by the Japan Industrial Designers’ Association (JIDA). As a startup company, being recognized with such a major design award alongside major manufacturers is incredibly gratifying and humbling.

[Comments from the Evaluation Committee]
“This product uses AI and sensors to brew tea perfectly tailored to the drinker’s preferences, health, and environment. It integrates with apps and features automatic extraction, aligning with modern lifestyles. It demonstrates how the same tea leaves can produce different flavors under varying conditions, making the depth of tea more accessible. The distinctive infuser design and the ability to view the tea as it brews provide a sense of quality even before drinking. (Judge: Hideyuki Hamada)”
[Comments from Our Product Designer]
“The teplo Teapot is a smart teapot that automatically brews tea with smartphone integration. Its unique AI extraction system and vital sensing technology enable the world’s first ‘personalized extraction.’ It provides the best tea suited to every tea drinker’s mood and condition. With an increasing number of people starting to drink tea due to more time spent at home and rising health consciousness, teplo’s subscription service delivers global teas, allowing anyone to enjoy each tea in its best state from the start, even without prior knowledge or experience. We aim to create a rich lifestyle with delicious tea, seamlessly connecting the discovery of tea leaves to the moment of drinking. (Explanation by Hiroaki Nishimura, CEO of Nishimura Design Inc.)”
As the designer’s comments reflect, the teplo team will continue to work together to create a rich lifestyle with delicious tea.
