“Drawer Pouch of a ◯◯” is a series of pouches we created by teaming up with people in various industries to observe their own actual drawers and then create a Drawer Pouch from scratch by deciding the size, shape, and materials.
Printer’s Drawer (Large / Small) was created alongside art director Mitsunobu Hosoyamada and is inspired by a letterpress drawer.
These pouches come in two sizes, large and small, with a long, toolbox-like shape and a handle at the top. Each one features two orange zipper pulls, allowing it to be opened and closed from any angle.
Inside, movable dividers allow for organized storage of small items, making it easy to see where everything is at a glance. The dividers attach with hook-and-loop fasteners, so they can be moved to your preferred positions or removed entirely when not needed.
Large includes three dividers, and the top lid is equipped with a mesh pocket that also has elastic loops for securing pens and other items.
Small includes two dividers, and the top lid has a mesh pocket with elastic loops as well.
The fabric is made of waxed, water-resistant cotton, giving it a unique firmness and a high-quality feel.
The orange zipper pulls add a charming touch. The front of the pouch features a design of the handle of a printer’s drawer printed in two shades of gray. The name of Hosoyamada’s letterpress studio, “LETTERPRESS LETTERS,” is also included.
These pouches are handy “drawers” for storing tools, daily essentials, and personal items, both at home and on the go. The dividers make it easy to organize the contents, making them perfect for travel when you want to keep everything you need close at hand.
