KIDDIE CARDBOARD FURNITURE







Perfect for your kids (or the kid in you) is Swiss architect Nicola Enrico Stäubli’s FoldSchool furniture. His miniature cardboard pieces (chair, stool, and rocker) allow for affordable, good design for even the youngest of your family. And by affordable, I mean free! These designs are offered as downloadable FREE patterns from his website. All you need is a printer, some cardboard, and a pair of scissors, and you’re on your way to sitting pretty with your tots on some truly green, interactive, and surprisingly sturdy seating. Each piece is simple to create and would make a great eco-design crafts project for you and your little one on a rainy day



"Mass culture is run by superficiality and ecological absurdity. Foldschool supports craftsmanship as a face-to-face approach to design and brings together product and user the closest possible. The mindset of Foldschool is to restore design to one of its original missions: to provide a product at an affordable price through a smart manufacturing process.”
