Recycled Toy Furniture

摘要

These first-generation prototypes of the high-tech scavenging of recycled plastics for furniture include four different-sized tables with plastic Panelite tops, a low bench, storage wall, coat rack and cylindrical shoe closet. Our everyday lives are surrounded by plastic water bottles, plastic cars painted to look like metal, plastic furniture, plastic implants in our bodies, plastic additives in our concrete, plastic wall materials, light filtered through plastic diffusers and thin plastic screens on our desktops. It is therefore no wonder that glass seems so exotic to architecture when we are surrounded by so much plastic.
