Chair in the box
Overview
Corrugated boards are largely manufactured using high percentages of secondary fiber (including old corrugated containers, old newspapers and even straw), thereby diverting these materials from the municipal solid waste stream. Almost 77% (24.7 million tons) of all corrugated produced is recycled.
Purpose
To design a chair made out of corrugated box that elevates a user of undetermined size off of the ground, comfortably, for an extended period of time.
Chair in the box
The Chair in the box is an easy to fold and make, portable chair that could be taken almost anywhere. It could be changed into a chair in less than 5 seconds.
1. Just open the box,

3. Insert it into the small groove
And you’re ready to sit!

- Easy to make
