here's how the boxes work:
they come flat (on the bottom shelf of the above photo). one piece of sturdy cardboard for the drawer, and one piece for the box that holds it.




i especially like this corner detail, with the recessed drawer pull finger ledge (sorry i'm not up on furniture terminology).
so i plan to uses boxes like these for the move, and then as my new modular furniture system. and maybe eventually to mail back to the states. imagine, if you could move and never pack or unpack your dresser. brilliant, muji, brilliant.
on a related note (and then i will stop, promise, or maybe make a new blog that's all about muji.....bwah ha ha) i went to the what i believe is the largest muji in kansai yesterday. after going to the one in umeda (its inside Loft) and being a little disappointed i stumbled across the mothershop, in namba. you can access it from Nan Nan Town (actually the first underground shopping area in japan, since 1957). it's in the same building as tower records, a real one two punch to the wallet. 5 floors of goodness, with an entire restaurant in the subbasement. ahhhh.
