Yellow Paper Pulp Sculptural #21.1d Tubes Side Table By Zaven

The Tubes series was initiated during lockdown in the spring of 2020, when the Italian studio Zaven's married co-founders were stuck at home. "We decided to build a new piece of furniture for our living room, using the material we had at our disposal, mostly paper from old lifestyle magazines. Back in the studio we decided to developed the project and investigate it in various types of objects. The result is a collection of furniture entirely made from recycled and recyclable materials."The table is made from cardboard, paper pulp, solvent-free glue and paint. It's very sturdy, since the internal structure is made of cardboard tubes. The surface is hard and is painted with the same water-based paint used in the furniture industry. It essentially has the same characteristics as a wooden table, so it's resilient for use in normal conditions. It should not be left outdoors, but if it had some liquid spilled on it, for example, it would be fine. It can be ordered in any custom color for a $400 surcharge.
