"Japanese design office Nendo has created 9 different types of chocolate. While each of them are the same size, not a single piece from the Chocolatexture ( created for the Maison & Objet Trade Fair) collection look alike. That’s because Oki Sato, who leads the Tokyo and Milan-based firm, rethought the concept of chocolate by focusing on texture. “There are many factors that determine a chocolate’s taste,” says Sato, referring to factors like the origin of cocoa, the percentage used, and the various different flavors. But by instead turning his attention to attributes like pointy, smooth and rough, the designer has created distinctive chocolates that all use identical ingredients but taste completely different due to the various textures." writes Colossal
