This cardboard chair is a lightweight, flat-pack seating solution designed for events, exhibitions and temporary spaces. It has a clean, sculptural form that works across brand activations, workshops, installations and pop-up environments.
How It Works
The chair is made from interlocking cardboard panels that slot together to create a rigid structure. No tools required. Each piece is pre-cut and designed to lock into place during assembly.
The internal structure distributes weight evenly, which is what gives it strength.
It’s designed to be:
- quick to assemble
- easy to transport flat
- stable for event and installation use
For larger projects, chairs can be delivered flat-packed and assembled on site by your team or ours.
Customisation and Branding
This is where the chair becomes part of the overall experience rather than just seating.

Sustainability
These chairs are made using responsibly sourced cardboard and are designed to keep material use efficient without compromising strength.
Because they’re lightweight and flat-packed, transport impact is reduced compared to bulkier builds. This becomes especially valuable when producing larger quantities for events.
After use, there are a few pathways depending on the project:
- reuse across multiple events or activations
- repurpose into other builds or components
- recycle through standard cardboard streams
For organisations working toward sustainability goals, this approach helps reduce waste while still delivering a considered, design-led outcome.
Ideal Applications
This chair works well across a wide range of environments:
- brand activations and campaign spaces
- exhibitions and gallery installations
- workshops, talks and community events
- retail pop-ups and temporary fit-outs
- theatre and set design
- immersive or themed environments
- photo moments or styled seating areas
