foldschool.com — downloadable DIY chairs for kids and geeks [update]

nicola finally made it!
his newest project as a design­ing archi­tect is online: the fold­school — card­board furniture.

since ages he’s made plans and mod­els (fill­ing the shop­win­dow in his stu­dio), now every­thing is online, func­tional and look­ing good.

if you have kids [1], or are keen about cool mecha­tronic furniture-design this if for you!
you just need some scrap card­board and the printed pat­terns from nicola, some time and prob­a­bly a lot of glue. then you have uber-cool look­ing fur­ni­ture with which the kids can play as the want. if they destroy it, you just build a new one with them. and even your con­science stays clean!

i you can’t quite fig­ure it out how it looks, he even pro­vides you with a 3D-model of the stool, chair and rocker.

and yes, he’s all over the web already and even got BBed!
con­grat­u­la­tions nicola!
