| Chair made of seatbelts. Arborline; jpercing.com | Arborline children's; jpercing.com |
Due to the very strong webbing these chairs are well suited for heavy use such as restaurants, libraries and food courts as well as many other commercial and residential applications.
Another unusual use of concrete. Betonvorhang (concrete curtains) by Christine Pils and Werner Schedler. The colour and form of the concrete cushions are adaptable to the respective functions. The concrete curtains can be used as a sun and windscreen, privacy screen, facade element or heat accumulating room partition. The product won the red dot design award “best of the best” in 2008.
