Tokyo design week: Japanese brand Metaphys presented many new products at 100% Design Tokyo last month, including the Cortina electric kettle (above).

The brand, headed by designer Chiaki Murata, also created the Hono LED candle, which we featured a few weeks ago. Above: Levanto hairdryer.

Some interesting ‘Muji-esque’ Japanese product design. I find the kettle a bit tacky and the toothbrush not bearing the same design language as the other products. I would like to see these products in the flesh to see if they really work .

I want them all. I am calmer just by viewing them…
