Overlap Lunch Box, 2020, Resin, 210 x 102 x 182.5mm  

My design is a lunch box with three levels inside. My inspiration comes from the ancient lunch boxes in China and Japan which are composed of several grid drawers and are convenient to hold different foods. The first layer has three separate small spaces that can separate food or fruit. The second and third layers have the same design, but the volume is diverse. Two options for the strap include a strap that can be carried like a plastic bag, but it can be recycled to protect the environment and the other is an elastic band that it can be used to fix the utensils or tied to one or two layers of the box.
