Our Story
Ava, the founder of Flowing Space, has always seen tea as more than just a drink—it is a ritual, a source of comfort, and a way to find balance. After experiencing unexpected turns in her career and personal life, she found herself lost, searching for a sense of grounding. It was through tea that she rediscovered a quiet strength—a space for reflection, healing, and reconnection with her true self. Seeking a new beginning in New York, she hopes to share the gentle power of tea with this city, offering Flowing Space as a refuge where people can pause, reconnect, and embrace moments of peace.
Annie, the co-founder and artist behind Flowing Space, believes that art should not be distant or exclusive—it should be lived, touched, and experienced in daily life. For her, art is not confined to galleries; it exists in the simple beauty of handmade ceramics, the weight of a tea cup in one’s hands, and the quiet joy of shared moments. Passionate about bringing people together through creativity, Annie sees Flowing Space as a bridge between art and life—a place where functional art and human connection flow effortlessly.
More than a tea house or a gallery, Flowing Space is an experience, a community, and a philosophy. It is a place where art and tea invite stillness, where the beauty of everyday rituals is rediscovered, and where souls can find their way back to themselves.
We welcome you to slow down, take a deep breath, and step into the flow.
