Artist statement

Lapel is a standard chair produced by profiling, scoring and folding 100 per cent recycled plastic sheet. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, Lapel can be assembled tool-free in minutes without glues or screws. Lapel is made of waste material retrieved from landfill and can be cleanly dismantled and returned to the recycle stream at the end of its life.

Inspired by origami-folding techniques, Lapel is a sculpturally unique chair with outstanding environmental credentials.
