FlexibleLove, the green and endless seat


FlexibleLove™

FlexibleLove™

FlexibleLove is a seat designed by Taiwanese designer Chishen Chiu. He created a patent-pending accordian-like honeycomb structure which allows the single seat to be stretched to seat up to 16 people! The seat is made from recycled paper and wood and is manufactured using existing production processes to reduce the impact for the environment.

Check the video below for the endless uses of the seat.
