Muji
Muji is a Japanese retail company that sells a wide variety of household and office goods. Their main emphasis in terms of design is minimalism. That means Muji products look extremely plain, but that is what actually sets them apart. I first came across their store a few years ago in Langham Place in Mongkok HK. I wasn’t able to look at their office supplies then but was able to buy a nice polka dotted polo shirt. A few years later I went to their store in a mall near Knutsford Terrace HK. That was when I bought a large amount of supplies for my own use.
One of the things that grabbed my attention was this transparent cased marker. How cool is this?
Here are some notebooks and pad papers I bought in Muji’s Taipei store in New York New York mall
Hopefully in a few years time I will have enough resources in place to ensure that all office and school supplies we use at Informatics is by Muji. It’ll cost a lot but it somehow all fits in with how I envision our school will be like in 3-5 years time.
