Two little birds playhouse

A scale model and  full-size mock-up of a playhouse I’m making for Stockholm Furniture Fair in February 2014. It’s made from birch plywood and water hyacinth rope, and is a part of a project of making furniture from rope of unwanted materials – waste or weeds. Water hyacinth is an aquatic weed causing various environmental problems throughout the world; an organization called Zingira in Kenya is making efforts in turning it into useful material.
