Squares by Nosigner
Tokyo Designers Week 09: Japanese designer Nosigner presented a jewellery box with square drawers at Design Tide Tokyo earlier this week.
Called Squares, the front of the piece is divided into squares of different sizes.
The surface is pollished using a technique traditionally used for finishing mirror stands in the Tokushima prefecture of Japan.
Drawers are only released if the central one is opened first.
Nosigner also launched a collection of modular furniture called Unit at Design Tide Tokyo (see our previous story).

Here’s some text from Nosigner:
SQUARES jewelry case
There are rectangles which could make different size of squares, called ‘Perfect Rectangles’. SQUARES are accessory cases which were designed by these rectangle.
The surface was polished by piano finish with sheepskin, which is a unique technique of making traditional mirror stand in Tokushima prefecture, Japan.
Whole drawers of SQUARES are not open until the center drawer is open.
This is a traditional trick used for Japanese drawer.
