New News by jakpanee sothornnopabutr from thailand
designer's own words:
The design of “New News” originates from the short life of newspapers. In our daily life, we read newspaper everyday and the old newspapers become wasted papers. The idea of this product is to prolong the usage of old newspapers before they go to the bin too soon.
Without any additional elements as decorations, But the minimal use of materials yet maximizes the outcome. When you fold a newspaper in half and then slide the edge into the Abs plastic slot. 48 old newspapers will become a stool that you can sit on. The beauty of this design comes from the functionality as well as the uniqueness of each stool that randomly created by the pattern of newspapers.
