All Eyes on the 2pac Chair by rawstudio
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 11.15.07

Made from two flat-pack pieces, the 2pac (get it?) chair is made from FSC-certified birch plywood by UK-based designers rawstudio. Brilliantly simple, with only two shapes and four pieces, it requires no hardware for assembly -- just snap it together -- and is even suitable for outdoor use. Sustainable materials, thoughtful, resource-minimizing design and easy assembly/disassembly all adds up to a slick TreeHugging chair. Available in the UK at Greenhaus. ::rawstudio via ::swissmiss2


















Nice! I get a little jaded by treehugger's enthusiasm for flat pack even in designs that aren't efficient or sustainable in any substantial way, but this one appears to score well on almost all metrics.
Great to see other companies also getting into the flatpack, sustainable materials, minimising resources logic!
I assume they've figured out how to keep the pieces all fitting together snuggly despite temperature and humidity changes. The neat thing is that the chair actually looks reasonably comfortable with decent sculptures where it counts.
