The curator’s own: Naoto Fukasawa’s “Brown Chocolate” - chocolate-coloured chocolate!
Cut your teeth on this idea: “412-810″ by HIMAA are individually made chocolate keys. From the Chocolate exhibition.
A mini gramophone and a chocolate record playing real sounds. Is that the sound of happy kids or wailing cries? Tom Vincent`s “choco-on-key” echoes questions about cacao`s source and the people harvesting it.
From the Chocolate exhibition at the new 21_21 Design Sight space in Tokyo: Play King Kong with this miniature "city made of chocolate," imagining yourself crashing through semi-sweet office buildings and flinging about menacing bosses. By Naoko Tone and Atsuyoshi Iijima.
Yoji Ishii`s piece “germination” sprouts a little green stalk from an earthy chocolate bean. From the Chocolate exhibition.

Casulo: An Entire Apartment's Furniture in One Small Box
totally love Casulo, the total concept and the apartment in a box thingy... then it would b so much easier to move... i can still remember the days when i have to move from a place to another for 2 times in a month... that's totalleee stressful.... settling down jus for a week and yet not totalleee the nex thing i know is i gotta move out again... once again... the packing up and carrying all the stuffs.... geeez... how i wished i've got a Casulo~ haha.... but to purchase one here would definiteleee costs more than the place and the stuffs i have~
What's Casulo?
CASULO is a complete set of room furniture which can be set up in less than ten minutes and later disassembled and repacked like a standard Euro pallet of 80 cm by 120 cm. No tools are needed in the process.
A packed CASULO can be transported and stored at nominal expense by any carrier and shipping agent. Not only can a disassembled CASULO unit be packed with one’s personal items. The CASULO itself is sturdy and thus no additional packaging materials are necessary when it is ready for transport. The CASULO can then either be sent to a prearranged address or delivered directly to one’s flat. Two people can lift, carry, and assemble each piece of furniture within the CASULO. The unit is constructed of durable, long-lasting materials. A CASULO offers a solution for today’s style of life - “Here today – must move tomorrow.”
