7 Japanese Buildings Designed to Look Like the Products Sold from Them

Does this building look like a chocolate bar standing three storeys tall? That’s completely intentional. This is the Meiji Chocolate Factory in Osaka, Japan. The facility dates back to 1955. When it was refurbished in 2011, the architecture firm Taisei Design proposed covering on side with a facade that looks like Meiji chocolate. It’s visible to passengers on a rail line that passes nearby.

This chocolate factory is one of seven buildings in Japan that are shaped like the products sold from or manufactured in them. See Spoon & Tamago for more, including a brewery shaped like glasses of beer and a pet supplies warehouse that looks like a dog.
