Timber Cafe by BAKOKO

Constantly on a mission to green up architecture, the <a href="http://www.bakoko.jp/87513/812428/works/timber-caf">Japanese design firm BAKOKO</a> devised this extraordinary pop-up concept wherein chairs and tables are cut right out of the Timber Cafe's walls! The idea is to use <a href="http://inhabitat.com/the-lantern-pavilion-glowing-contemporary-architecture-made-of-sustainable-timber/">sustainable timber panels</a> for a self-standing structure that can be shipped and then erected on the other side in just one day. But here's the topper: the chairs and tables for the pop up cafe are punched right out of the walls, which makes for some curious windows.
