Building a Sustainable Indianapolis Metro Region
reincarnation
recently I also saw the work of Dutch designer Wendy Plomp - cardboard carpets "message in a box" in ELLE Decor and I was so amazed!!
Cardboard is probably the cheapest industrial packaging material available on the market. Any image that is printed onto this typically throwaway material can turn into a design object.
perfect example how something that can have a second life even BETTER than their first one! and we need really is to THINK BIGGER.
the carpets, available in various patterns, where recently used to decorate an Arabic themed dinner hosted by a restaurant in the Netherlands.
You can visit Wendy’s website if you are interested in her work.
