Designer Svetlana Kozhenova has designed two pieces, the ECO Table and ECO Chair, for online design marketplace Groopti, a site that makes limited production runs of independently designed home products.
The ECO Table and ECO Chair are cool geometric-looking pieces that, when combined, can function as a bookcase, lounge chair, bench or table. Kozhenova has crafted each piece by combining layer upon layer of machine-cut, corrugated, recycled cardboard. According to the product description, the layered cardboard ensures the design is stronger and more stable.
If you're interested in picking up the ECO Table and ECO Chair for yourself, you can customize the pieces to be any color you wish. Further, along with the pieces' eco-friendly base material, Groopti will use environmentally friendly UV printing to create them upon order.
