This stylish cardboard lounge chair was inspired by the Volvo C30, specifically its tail lights. Designer, Luis Luna took the eye-shaped form and created a chic chaise, ottoman and side table that all nest completely within each other.
Luis Luna won first prize for the sustainable project in the “Volvo For Life Design Awards." The sleek 3-in-1 piece of furniture proves that good design can successfully be transformed from one context to another, yielding a completely different product.
