Natural Motion Lunchpod - Competition within growing economies have caused a social impulse toward going to work with a ready prepared lunch which allows people to produce without stop. It may appear beneficial in the surface, yet lunch time has proved to be more than about food. It is a space for relaxation and social relations. The faster an economy is moving, the less time there is for these healthy moments.
Lunchboxes are not always assimilated with beauty or elegance. Most of us prefer to use a plastic bag than carry a lunchbox around. This is not related to bad function, rather it is bad aesthetics and conventional thought patterns which have told us that lunchboxes are definitely not cool.
With these principles in mind, the Natural Motion Lunchpod tries to resolve an object’s use by creating an experience around it in layers which unwrap with the different stages of its life cycle.
