Lego And Muji Join Forces

MUJI partnered with LEGO on a fun new concept. The idea is to punch LEGO-sized holes in paper and then use both the lego pieces and paper to create and build whatever comes to mind.

Available November 27th at MUJI Japan – just in time for the Holiday season. US and European MUJI locations have yet to confirm stock.
