JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT you'd had enough of Lucite, architect Frank Gehry and Swiss furniture-design firm Vitra have teamed up to reissue Gehry's iconic 1972 Easy Edges collection of cardboard furniture. Included in the group are the Wiggle Side Chair and Low Table Set, above, both of which will be available in white, fluorescent green, orange lacquer and the original cardboard. Gehry has also added a new piece: Block, a solid cube of cardboard with colorfully painted sides. The collection will be available exclusively at Vitra's New York City and San Francisco stores. Prices range from $250 to $4,350.
