Chinese design studio KBme2 believes that there are simple ways to create housewares that could truly belong to the user. They tested their idea our using LEGO, the timeless building tool beloved by both children and adults.Witness this playful tissue/utility box they devised by stacking white LEGO building blocks to represent a small-scale modernist house with compelling architecture.

It is a fine example of the many useful things that can be made with the FAB LEGO Architecture Kit or simply Super Packs of White Bricks .

  1. Why not? Because legos are not cheap, that is a pretty expensive tissue cover. However, yes, individuality is nice but I don’t think legos leave or hold the mark of the maker. If one deconstructs that lego tissue cover it becomes absolutely meaningless and holds nothing from its past life as a tissue holder unless you took a picture of it. In this way it has a low meaning index.

  2. Very interesting idea: a low meaning index. Thank you.
