Chair #205



CARTON CHAIR
—Designed by Super Limão Studios

X marks the spot! This is one of a few clever cardboard chairs from the Brazilian based Super Limão studio. The studio was started in Sao Paulo, Brazil's biggest city, and is run by architect Bia Hajnal, colleague and husband designer Sergio Cabral, and architect Thiago Rodrigues. The first two started designing with recovered and recycled materials in college, when they used to collect old computer boxes, and as their idea grew they joined Rodrigues in 2002. Driven by materials recovery and recycling, today the studio has several collections organized by the motivations and materials behind the products: plastic, paper, reel, recovered materials and other projects. Check them out, they have one the the most creative websites ever. See Chair #168 on June 17 of this blog for another cool Super Limão Studio carton chair.
