Looking for that modernistic, cultivated yet eco friendly piece of furniture to effortlessly bedeck your living room? Well, look no more; because we have come across the simply and aptly named ‘Cardboard Chair’. Made out from only corrugated cardboard materials as the name suggests, the design is complimented by innovative form fitting techniques that results in its deft exquisiteness.
Without any doubt, it is the impeccable visual magnetism without the opulent essence of wood or leather that draws our attention. In fact, the subtle roughness of the facade texture has its own nature of aesthetics. This is further accentuated by the sharp linearity of the form, which insinuates a by gone era of elegant Art Deco.
However, beyond just decorative factors, it is the core credentials of the conception that relates to user convenience. In this regard, the 780mm x 690mm x 800mm (with 420mm seat height) chair has been inspired from the idea of Cradle to Cradle design. This expansive scope hints at the biomimetic approach to design, in which the guidelines suggest enrichment and protection of our eco system through our regenerative yet, user friendly products.
As a matter of fact, the designers in this case have used not only cardboard, but also have utilized biodegradable adhesive and energy efficient form fitting techniques. Thus, the end product resulted in fully compostable furniture with an equally comfortable finish.
