Make a Forest is a creative response to the need to preserve trees and change the way we think about dealing with our environment, locally and globally, in a sustainable and conscious way. The rubbertree is made of car tires.
Dimensions of the rubbertree:
W: 2 meter, H: 3,20 meter, B: 78 centimeter
During the Dutch Design Week at Eindhoven, the rubbertree was exposed as a part of the ‘Make a Forest‘ project.
