The conceptual 'Hyobodo Fiume' bento boxes have been designed by Andrea Ponti as a modern take on the traditional Japanese food containers that would provide a person with a decidedly more elegant way to carry food with them.
The boxes are inspired by traditional jubako tiered boxes and feature compartmentalized units that will evenly distribute food inside each one as they keep them separated. The lines observed in the boxes call to mind the landscape of specific locations in Japan including the Kamogawa River.
The conceptual 'Hyobodo Fiume' bento boxes are imagined in red and black color options, and offer a distinctly modern twist on a traditional design. This could help to make them more suited for the needs of today's consumer on a global basis.
