I wonder how well this will work in real life situations? or is it just a gimmick? Or maybe you need to spill things as a child to learn how to be more careful?

The Money Box was designed by Kensaku Oshiro for Vlaemsch. We’re also tickled that the packaging consists of a shredded paper “nest” — we might even display it with the paper.

What got me going was an article in the Times a few weeks ago about a house in Idaho that Tom Kundig designed for Jan Cox, an artist and designer. The images of this lone outpost with huge glass windows and warm wood interiors captured my imagination and sent me looking at all of Tom Kundig’s other house designs. Wow. They are stunning…
