How to grow (Italian) furniture

A new armchair made of grass

TERRA! is a line of cardboard skeletons produced by the Italian Studio Nucleo that people can fill with dirt first, and then cover with grass and seeds and get, in no more than two months, a brand new backyard seating...made of grass.

As reported by Time magazine, "the frame ships flat with assembly instructions, and prices start at $280 for an adult-sike armchair.

Studio Nucleo developed this amazing line of furniture in 2000, but it took them more than 15 years to cut down prices in order to commercialise their unique seats, that apparently fit perfectly both in public parks and private gardens.

Amo l'Asia in (quasi) tutte le sue sfaccettature, ecco perché cerco di trascorrerci più tempo possibile. Dopo aver lavorato per anni come ricercatrice a New Delhi e Hong Kong, per qualche anno osserverò l'Oriente dalla quella che è considerata essere la città più vivibile del mondo: Melbourne. Insegno Culture and Business Practice in Asia ad RMIT University,  Asia and the World a The University of Melbourne e mi occupo di India per il Centro Militare di Studi Strategici di Roma.
