Cardbofur: Furniture of the Future

Workshop

‘Cardbofur: Furniture of the Future’ invites children to creative imaginative furniture using cardboard and paper. Participants will have the opportunity to design and create simple furniture such as a stool, chair or table. The paper has a different thickness and flexibility and it’s a great material for creating art but also for making usable products such as furniture. The project is promoting sustainability and using recyclable and biodegradable materials.

The project will include a series of workshops (4 workshops) with the final workshop and presentation of the product on Saturday the 15th of June.
