The Mealbox: Concept Dining
I found a most peculiar yet brilliant piece of product design via Metafficient today and I simply cannot resist sharing this with the rest of you. It’s called the Mealbox and it’s simply a Japanese style dining table + chairs that can be packed very neatly into a box.

This minimalist birch plywood dining table + chair set which promotes Japanese style seating does not originate from the east but surprisingly, from Norway via IglandDesign. Learn more about the Mealbox here.
Another unique point about this product is that the table is put together via jigsaw puzzle-like interlocking sections. I’m not sure which came first, but IglandDesign used the same interlocking technology on another one of their products, also a table, called the PingoLongo.

wow..thats so creative. Can just bring them to picnic:P
Interesting idea… Is the table strong enough in the middle to support a fair bit of weight… Not just the food placed on it, but also the elbows of the eaters? It doesn’t look that solid to me…

Based on my own personal experience — both as an investor in recent years and an expert witness in years past — rarely do more than three or four variables really count. Everything else is noise.
