More and more companies today go over their heads in order to promote -an let people know they are doing so- a sustainable environment. However, in the long run this turns out to have positive effects, so who are we to complain about the subliminal effects? We hope in this situation there are none, which is why we decided to present this interesting idea in the first place. Located in Reggio Emilia, in northern Italy, and designed by Francesca Signori this eBARRITO store is 100% organic and its furniture was improvised using cardboard. Here is a better explanation from the official web site: “The new eBARRITO stores consist of modular, double-pressed cardboard walls equipped with wavy-style shelving – an effect achieved with interlocking tubular sections and modular lamps resembling bird-cages.” We really appreciate this sort of designs and hope to show you more similar ideas in the future.

very interesting and inspiring… however… what if there is a leak? it’d cause much more damage than regular furniture.
Christine – There are two possibilities. They thought at this before, or the shop was placed somewhere far away from any source of water.
The maintenance of a store like this is difficult…how do they clean the tubes or the entire store?it takes a lot of time..uhh..cleaning each tube one by one..
