FOLDSCHOOL Cardboard Furniture for Kids

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

Sweet. This will be something cool to do with Maxie. We’ve accumulated lots of boxes in the basement over the winter that’ll be perfect for this. It’ll be great to have furniture that Max can draw on instead of the walls, or Papa….

I’ll try it out and let y’all know the results.

Foldschool 8We can’t think of a better combination than DIY-crafts, cardboard, and kids- and Swiss architect Nicola Enrico Stäubli’s FoldSchool furniture does just that. What’s more, his chairs-for-kids (or for the kid in you) are not products for purchase, but rather downloadable FREE patterns from his website. All you need is a printer, some cardboard, and a pair of scissors, and you’re on your way to sitting pretty with your tots on some truly green, interactive, and surprisingly sturdy seating. Your three options are stool, rocker, and chair, each of which are simple to create and would make a great eco-design crafts project for you and your little one on a rainy day.
