+=== Discussion topics/potential questions ===
+  * Beside the omni present plastics, which are other todays challenges that relate to materials and overproduction that might be interesting to be used in future furniture developments? Let us say e.g. used car tires or used cloth. What else? What would be needed to integrate such into contemporary developments?
+  * Which aspects come together in Shigeru Ban Paper Tube and Plywood Stool? Which developments in design does it built on? Is this chair a sustainable solution? What would happen if instead of the cardboard tubes other elements would be used? What can you think of => glass bottles, chicken bones…?
+  * Which aspects come together in the Spun chair? What other materials would you like the chair to be made of?
+  * What do you think about the fact that the Spirit House Chair was created for a specific building but is also sold for private households?
