Lol cool
It’s been done before. I’ve seen a lot of aluminum pull-tab furniture. Aluminum can furniture. Zip-tie furniture (those are zip-ties, right?).
It’s still cool though. :)
Even if it’s been done before, kudos to the creator. That took a lot of effort, and a lot of drinking! Must be one very tired, but well hydrated designer!
Also, I do like how this takes material that is normally discarded and turns it into something new. This piece would be a good conversation-starter!
Cool…..
Pull-tabs are extinct here in the U.S. ..and I predict there soon, too.
Oh wait, you can get it on horrid tasting faux.j. cans. I think it’s the tabs that make it taste so bad.
Hm, wasteful. Pull tabs can be melted back into a reusable mass of metal but plastic zip ties are made from petrol-based plastics. Re-tarded “thinking exercise”. Isn’t the purpose of such exercises to produce something of worth, not “concept trash”?
