Nowadays, afternoon tea culture has been influenced worldwide. Tea culture is the symbol of Britain culture. Though it is simpler than before, it still contains the characteristics from the Victorian era such as drinking tea with sundry refreshments by delicate tableware in elegant ambience. Recently, some unique tea houses open in Taipei city. Although British afternoon tea is definitely different from Taiwanese traditional tea culture, many people go to British tea houses in Taipei. Thus, this research investigates the history of afternoon tea in Britain and Taiwan and finds out the relationship of exotic culture communication and urban development. After that, this research discusses the production of space in those tea houses and the genre de vie the owner and the consumers create together. The results of research are: 1. The communication of afternoon tea in Victorian era is related to industrialization and urbanization in Britain. Tea spread out from London in Britain in 1840s, as afternoon tea spread out from Taipei in Taiwan these days. The reason is that the upper cities have more tendency to accept exotic culture than other cities. Thus, the opportunity of those upper cities to develop new genre de vie is increasing. 2. To the owners of tea houses, the drinking of tea is a kind of cultural consumption. By producing cultural meaning of tea, regulating table etiquette, and strengthening self-identity, the owners represent their dream tea houses in the real spaces. On the other hand, the consumers shape their understanding and identities of the tea houses by learning the cultural meaning and etiquette. They act according to their understanding and hence make the tea houses representational spaces. 3. To the consumers, tea house is a place of social intercourse and self- expression. They see drinking tea as conspicuous consumption. By doing this, they define the taste and veiled social status of themselves.英式下午茶生活方式消費認同炫耀性消費空間的生產文化迴路afternoon teagenre de vieidentity of consumptionconspicuous consumptionproduction of spacecircuit of culture臺北市英式下午茶生活方式與消費認同之探討The genre de vie and identity of consumption of afternoon tea in Taipei
