cardboard tube armchair

by stas zhitskiy from russia

designer's own words:

This chair is made of cardboard tubes.
Normally they go to the recycling bin after being used as a base for the foil or polyethylene film.
But with the help of cutter and glue the armchair can be made of them.
Of course it will take a long time to collect such a quantity of tubes at home. But supermarkets or food manufacturers use a lot of plastic for packaging – and that’s the chance to give the new life for this potential garbage!
