The Cardboard Apartment

The Cardboard Apartment was constructed by Chilean artist Don Lucho using recycled materials he found on the street.

It features a full-scale kitchen, including pots and pans, as well as a toilet and a place to sleep.

The work was created by painting the cardboard white and colouring in details with a black marker. It was then all taped together to form the finished apartment.

‘This project tries to create a parody of the social reality of the South American dwelling’, Don Lucho explains. ‘It’s a reflection regarding the way of building and the small and frail spaces that are inhabited.’
