Milk Tea Shop Bear Mascot Sculpture
1. Project Background
In the highly competitive beverage market, creating a strong visual identity and an Instagrammable storefront is crucial for attracting foot traffic and driving organic social media exposure.
This project involves the creation of a pair of custom bear mascot sculptures designed specifically to solve the “attraction + viral sharing” pain point for milk tea shops. The design features two distinct styles: a pink-cheeked bear reminiscent of a fresh cream puff to appeal to children and female demographics, and a classic brown bear with bright, soulful eyes that perfectly complements the warm tones of milk tea.
Both bears hold a milk tea cup which can be customized with the shop’s logo, acting as a highly effective, 24/7 “living billboard.” Crafted from high-gloss fiberglass, the sculptures offer a premium, “built-in filter” aesthetic for customer photos while ensuring exceptional weather resistance against sun and rain for 1–2 years without fading. Proven market feedback shows an average 30% increase in store foot traffic and social media check-ins following installation.
