Alexie Sommer created this beautiful a-chair out of 250 sheets of recycled cardboard. Stunning.
“The a-chair was realised at the Royal College of Art. Inspired by a Alvar Aalto’s ply-wood furniture experiments, Frank Gehry’s cardboard furniture, typographic forms and sustainable materials. The a-chair was hand crafted from over 250 sheets of recycled cardboard and a lot of love. For the a-shoot, the team drove the a-chair around London and visited a few friends…the highlight of the a-chair shoot was when we arrived at the Thomas Jones primary school in Ladbroke Grove. The moment the children saw the chair, they fell in love with it, and started climbing and jumping all over it – almost fighting over it. One of the kids said ‘It’s like a great big elephant – can we keep it?’ “
