The ‘Tube Chair’ made using discarded paper tubes.aFrom Discarded to Designed: The Paper Tube Chair
In a creative exploration of sustainable design, discarded cardboard tubes from a local print shop have been transformed into a functional and thought-provoking piece of furniture: the Tube Chair. This project reimagines the potential of everyday waste, giving new life to materials that are often overlooked and thrown away.
The design of the Tube Chair allows the inherent form of the cardboard tubes to define its aesthetic. The chair's construction ingeniously utilizes the hollow nature of the tubes to create integrated storage spaces. These small, functional nooks are perfect for stashing everyday items like notebooks, glasses, or stationery, adding a layer of quiet utility to the chair's minimalist form. The Tube Chair is a result of exploring material reuse, learning through making, and discovering value in the discarded.
