Although I've always known that permanent tissue boxes are the way to go (I'm that person who wastes minutes carefully choosing disposable tissue boxes based on their designs), it was only until I stumbled upon John Brauer's clever design that I realized I've found 'The One.' Yes, I'm pretty neurotic at times.
Inspired by the contents of this particular container, John Brauer has created a crumbly tissue box. Made from a composite of PE and synthetic rubber, it is simple yet endearing.
