After the strong earthquake in New Zealand in 2011 and until the next reconstruction remained in Christchurch many public areas empty and lifeless. In order to reduce this lack of public spaces, the local designer Carl Menary developed the use of waste products and created a robust, contemporary foundation. Menary has ReTyre , a structure made of metal clips that transform an old tire into a comfortable seat. The stable Clipse create pressure in the tires, thus forming a durable foundation warauf you can sit. The tires can be used as benches or used as individual chairs for special events or at social gatherings.

The earthquake in Christchurch 185 people lost their lives, it has caused the greatest disaster in the city center and in the eastern suburbs and is considered the most expensive disaster in the history of New Zealand. For the local, industrial designer Carl Menary the city center to a remote area with no public amenities for residents was. He decided to do something and to do the problem at the same time.
Original way to use the old tires again
In simple ReTyre system is the consumption of 4 metal clips that flatten the whole tire wall and they are durable and comfortable while sitting lassen.Man only needs about 90 seconds to incorporate them, but it is very difficult to develop them. This design captures even a simple pin drop between the ReTyre seating that joins them together. The can in rowsor circles be arranged. They are used in parks as benches or at bus stops.
A number of seats
How Menary told us was “easy and cheap to create applicable, robust public areas” his goal. Menary also works with the popular group Gap Filler, enthusiasts who strive for creative projects on undeveloped land in Christchurch during the ongoing reconstruction.
