Call it Survivor: Designer’s Edition or Project Eco-Design, but we’ve got one reality TV inspired challenge for you: What could you build with just some cotton rope and a pile of wood blocks? An impossible task you say? Well, designer Amy Hunting has got you beat. In an experiment to construct a low-impact, limited material product, Hunting scavenged a local lumber importer’s garbage bin and created Blockshelf, a Jenga-like creation of over 20 varieties of untreated waste wood blocks, simply stacked and secured with a traditional fishing knot.
