One ''Food à porter'' lunch box and bottle desgined by Sakura Adachi for Alessi Italy.

The ''Food à porter'' lunch box was also designed as a fashion accessory: the name expresses both the function of the object and the stand-out aesthetic value desired/imagined by the designer for this product. A beautiful object, to be shown off, to be worn as a stylish bag. In the project there are also two references to Japanese culture: those bento boxes where the lunch items are arranged in a careful and visually pleasing way; and the lacquered objects recalled by the alternation of glossy and opaque surfaces of the box's three containers.

The three containers are held together by a silicone band delivered in two different versions (see pictures). A single band that wraps the three containers and allows you to store the box inside a bag or a backpack, or a double band that ends in two handles and turns the lunch box into a handbag.

Spacious, compact and extremely versatile, thanks to the division into three containers and the option to use the two sealed lids provided, depending on the type of food you wish to carry: a sandwich with a yoghurt and a piece of fruit, pasta, rice , soup..

If warming your food, the containers are suitable for microwave heating only. On the lids there is a small opening, closed by a small silicone cap, marked with the maximum microwave times. Before placing the container into the microwave, the cap must be opened so that the steam produced can escape during heating (see pictures). The box is dishwasher safe.

The ''Food à porter'' bottle, created primarily for water from an ecological point of view, has two steel walls enclosing an air cavity between them providing thermal insulation properties that maintain both hot and cold drinks at the desired temperature for a long time. The bottle is made of a scratch resistant varnish and fitted with a non-slip silicone rubber base. The bottle comes with an infuser and filter that can be inserted to make teas, herbal teas or infusions. Easy to clean, the bottle is dishwasher safe while the thermoplastic resin lid. Hand washable, with lukewarm water.
