I have been drinking these teas for a long time but never realized that the shape was inspired by the traditional packaging material: Bamboo~ Can't help but admire those designers behind the scene!
"In Japan, the bamboo stem used to be the traditional container for beverages. Suntory has applied this image to its ‘Lemon Green Tea’ series so successfully that new products in the range are easily recognised." (via PingMag)

Twine Table by Henrik Bonnevier
I have been looking for a playful coffe table to compliment my "serious looking" livingroom~ Think I have found a perfect match. Now I just need to find out where to get it in Tokyo!
"A set of tables inspired by one of the oldest ways of attaching one object to another – with a needle and thread. The wire is twined through the table top, and becomes legs as well as upholding construction." (via wis design)
