O canal de comunicação da Riocontemporanea Arquitetura trata hoje, novamente, do que está acontecendo no mundo da arquitetura. A foto apresentada abaixo é a invenção de Stephanie Forsythe e Todd MacAllen, na "molo design", de Vancouver (CAN). O lounge (móveis, parede) é feito de papel!
Confira abaixo a matéria do site Cool Hunter, em inglês:
Computers could have been the biggest tree-saving invention of all time, yet here we are, “paperless office” still just a dream and trees being cut down faster than ever. Award-winning creative architect duo Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen at molo design in Vancouver, Canada, are not discouraged by this. They have decided to ensure that paper does some serious work at the office.
Their amazing corrugated paper furniture and white “soft” walls are not only fun to assemble, alter and move around, but good for the environment, too. Molo is the product arm of their bigger-scheme practice forsythe-macallen.com. Forsythe and MacAllen have been recognized around the world for their innovative housing and living-space projects and events. The first location for a molo design workshop will open in Milan, Italy by early 2008. It was previewed during this year’s Salone del Mobile in Milan.
Até a próxima!
