blacksheep

blacksheep by arianna subri from italy

designer's own words:

A blacksheep is a person nobody wants around, just like the materials this seat is made of. Inner tubes lay abandoned in the most disparate places as they are made of a non-recyclable material. From an accurate research on the material and after several cutting hypothesis, the solution characterizing this armchair was born.
The idea is a reinforcing rod structure painted with epossidic powder, hand-weaved with thread and 3000 punched shapes, in order to create a comfy,tactile and tridimentional nest which needs not further stuffing.
The covering is entirely realized in tracks' used inner tubes, previously washed with an ecologic detergent and cut into small pieces.
Cosy, very comfortable because it is elastic, it is suitable for indoor and outdoor spaces.
