I’ve always wanted to try a tea session at Carcosa Seri Negara, well-known for its colonial and heritage rich building. I got my opportunity when I was invited for an exclusive tea session at Carsosa Seri Negara with Qwstion and TACS.
Making its first foray into Malaysia, Qwstion (swiss luggage) and TACS (Japanese timepiece manufacturer) are both well known for conceptualising products that emphasize functionality with a timeless and stylish outlook.
TACS’ brand’s core essence is Taste, Attractive, Creative and Sense which connects us to our contemporary lifestyle – one can find quirky elements in the shape of a fragrant soap or the lens of a film camera inspiring TACS’ creations. Thus, the product line was appropriately named Tea Time, Hobby Time & Fun Time to attract the minimalist and the life hacker.
Whilst, QWSTION is looking to bridge the gap between forms and functions by creating stylish storage solutions that is suitable for leisure as well as for work. Designed to charm the mobile corporate and creative types, the brand has applied the same minimalist philosophy-resulting in a niche high fashion and functional utility product. QWSTION’s latest are made from organic cotton materials and feature minimal branding price points.
Each bag is made from a signature canvas of natural fabrics such as cotton, hemp and linen, with vegetable-tanned leather handles that darken and weather nicely over time. Such natural materials tend to have irregularities, giving each bag its unique character.
A light hearted chat during the tea session with Julianna Chai, managing director of Red Army Watches Malaysia and Dapper & Gentry says “both brands are what modern high-flyers are looking for. If you’re not an individual who is concern about flaunting your wealth, and need daily tools to making your days more efficient and effective then the offerings from both brands will prove to be perfect.
As we continue to peruse the offerings from TACS and QWSTION at close quarters, Chai adds, “Sometimes, life is simple and well-made products are the necessities that add values to our lives. They free us up to make time for our friends and family, and to allow us to pursue our passions. TACS and QWSTION are our passion because we believe in the principal behind each products made by these two exquisite brands.”
