“Eatable of Many Orders” 

designers team couple from Tokyo.

the phrase “Eatable of Many Orders” comes from a story about a restaurant which gives orders to customers rather than taking orders from them. 

They're  using only natural ingredients for their collection, such as vegetable tannin leather, mochi-rice glue, cotton, linen treads, wood, natural fabrics and dyes etc.  

"We would like to present our products like food and its ingredients with aesthetic sense and sensibility"
