Eco Factor: Car replica created from recycled materials.
UK-based Ben Wilson Design has designed a Formula 1 race car replica using nothing more than recycled Puma shoe boxes. The design was a part of an installation at Puma’s new store at North State Street, Chicago and portrays the company’s ongoing relationship with motor sports. The replica was put together by creating a 3D scanned replica car and then hand fixing the different shapes from cut out shoe boxes to finally create something unique.
