Starbucks and BEAMS Work Together on a Minimalist Travel Capsule
References: starbucks.co.jp & designtaxi
Minimalist travel is embraced in a chic and design-forward entirety by Starbucks Japan and clothing retailer BEAMS. The two entities work together to bring consumers an ultra-elegant and contemporary range of essentials. This includes compact slippers that can be used in hotels, bags, t-shirts, "hotel-inspired keychains," as well as an innovative miniature toothbrush that does not require toothpaste. The convenience-focused brushing tool boasts a "fine processing technology" to keep teeth sparkly white. Each of these offerings is packable, lightweight, and durable.
The minimalist travel collaboration is released under the coffee brand's luxurious extension — the Starbucks Reserve Roastery whose logo is present throughout. With a location in Tokyo, the co-branded capsule is available for a limited time.
