The design of a container usually depends on its possible contents and consequently raises certain expectations. Take Away 's appearance deliberately establishes the analogy to the universally known mundane object of modern life – the fast-food container – to suggest certain contents: fast food. This suggestion gives us the space to keep everything else in there unexpected. A symbol of our life at full speed here becomes a place to keep our valuable and durable things.
