This is a university project that produced by interior architecture students for their own school common areas. Also it is a type of before and after process. First, students designed the furniture as a bookshelf using cardboard tubes. They assembled the parts using a type of heavy-duty rope that you can hang books on these ropes. This bookself has been used for many years. But it is not used anymore. So I wanted to redesign it for campus animals that were left alone during the lock-down.
Disassembled the Furniture Parts
