(Un)limited Design Contest

Short Description:

To create a bowl with a diameter of 20cm you need about two carpet samples. For a bigger bowl take more samples and increase the width of the stripes accordingly to the diameter. In addition to that You need a carpet cutter, a cutting mat, a cutting ruler, a hammer and a bunch of nails.

Cut stripes from out of your carpet sample with a width of at least 25 mm and start to roll them as tight as you can. Fix the end of the stripe by nailing it. Start with a new stripe by fixing it again with a nail as close to the end of the last stripe as you can by not overlapping it. Keep rolling planarly. Stop when you reached the diameter that you want. To create the bowl-shape you can either push the middle of the roll softly inside or put the roll over an existing bowl the get an even shape.
