House-Shaped Kleenex Boxes

The CASA Tissue Cover Appears to Have a Smoking Chimney

— November 16, 2011 — Art & Design
The winter season is almost here, and that means noses will soon be dripping because of the cold weather; the CASA Tissue Cover is just what people need to class up the necessary tissue boxes littering spaces during these months. Contemporary yet cozy, it makes sure that tissue boxes don't detract from carefully decorated homes.

Designed by Mauricio Affonso, who was born in Curitiba, Brazil, and is now based in Toronto, Canada, the CASA Tissue Cover is cleverly shaped like a house. Although its design is minimalist, the chimney is a great touch, especially since the tissue resembles smoke before it is pulled out for use.

Affonso describes the CASA Tissue Cover as, "a clever design that adds an element of play and engages users to spontaneously transform the product every time."
