The 4x4 bench has been designed and constructed with a reuse approach, utilizing recycled materials. The bench is made using 16 recycled paper tubes, each measuring 160 centimeters in length. The challenge in designing this bench was placing the tubes on the smallest possible contact surface of the circle, as the tubes tend to slide on top of each other, requiring a larger contact surface for stability. To solve this challenge, recycled plastic pieces were designed and produced to prevent lateral movement of the tubes on each other.
