A new design for a Japanese bento lunch box? Doesn't that belong on the The Kitchen? Well, it would, except this isn't a bento box at all. It's a...
...dining room table and chairs set!

Mealbox is a 27- by 30-inch box less than 18 inches high that opens to a low dining set. The fully assembed table, fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, is 90" long and seats 6. When the dining table's not in use, the packed-up kit can double as a coffee table.

The design is by Norwegian designers Alet and Dag Igland of Ignald Design. The materials are birch plywood reinfoced with carbonfiber. The seat tops are padded with neoprene rubber.

Very cool!
OK, that is made of several degrees of awesome...I may have to go without groceries just to own that..
That's gotta be one of the most impressive products for compact living and entertaining!
Is this a prototype, or is it something that one could buy right now? Prices/retailers aren't listed on their webpg. Regardless, very very cool.
Possibly the coolest thing I've ever seen on this site.
Brilliant!
ooh, tell me the white box flips upsidedown to make a mini-buffet?
Seriously, this is so amazing. I have to have it.
Where can I get it?
