We held this human development resource project, targeting ordinary citizens like families, in an event that contributes to the promotion of the basic objectives of Creative Design City Nagoya. In this project, by taking part in a workshop held with the cooperation of local design groups, businesses and educational institutions, in which designers’ skills were applied, participants not only learned about how things are made, but also thought for themselves, actually made something by hand, and experienced the appeal of design.
We made a sturdy triangular chair out of corrugated cardboard. We enjoyed designing the exterior by applying colored tape. When tapped, the chairs emit sound. At the end of the workshop, everyone had fun making noise with the chairs.
Workflow:
We created the structure by using double-faced tape and wood glue along prepared creases in the cardboard. We had fun finishing the chairs’ exteriors with multi-color tape cut into various shapes.

We made a glittering tree with corrugated cardboard and the lids and mouths of PET bottles, into which we inserted lighting. Then we combined all the finished crafts into one huge glowing Christmas tree.
Workflow:
We created three great big triangles out of four triangular pieces of corrugated cardboard each, as well as the mouths and lids of PET bottles. Then we made a pyramid-shaped tree. At the end we applied multi-colored tape and punched holes in the piece through which light could shine from within.
