It Slices, It Dices: Chair777, To Sit, Lounge & Relax

Between its materials and multi-functional design, die fabrik's Chair777 is not your normal chair. It's made from cardboard, a material that has proven time and again that it's not just for boxes anymore, and might go quite nicely with the designers' table 433, made from recycled Venetian blinds. The lightweight chair can handle a variety of seating "modes," so take a load off and sit, lounge and relax in this curvy beauty.

We like how this and other cardboard chairs is helping to re-brand the easy-to-recycle material as more than just a handy-but-disposable material used for shipping and packaging and then tossed aside. Maybe Frank Gehry was really on to something....::die fabrik via ::Design Spotter
