Recycled Fabric Makes an Eco-Friendly Comfy Chair

Recycled Material Furniture Chair

This is a chair in case it wasn’t obvious. Designed by Nendo, and dubbed the Cabbage Chair, it is made completely from recycled materials. It has no nails or screws. The textile and garment manufacturing industry generates a lot of waste material. This chair design puts some of this material waste to good use. In this case rolls of pleated fabric are used. Recycling is de rigueur today, and this kind of furniture is just plain smart, green, thinking. It also looks incredibly comfortable, doesn’t it?

    That looks so comfy! It wouldn’t take long to get dirty but it probably would be enjoyable to have while it lasted.

    Seems like there is no end to the “Eco Friendly” everything these days. Does look comfy though :)
