Egyptian craftsman turns Cairo's junk into funky furniture
By Reuters Staff
2 MIN READ
CAIRO, Feb 22 (Reuters) - In the heart of Cairo, a city all too familiar with
environmental problems, Ibrahim Abougendy is doing his bit by converting
discarded junk into innovative modern furniture.
A bed made of car tyres and washing machine drums, an old suitcase turned
into a chair, or a chest of drawers that is now a sofa, each item is unique -
and environmentally friendly, using things that would otherwise be dumped.
一张由汽车轮胎和洗衣机滚筒制成的床，一个变成椅子的旧手提箱，或者现在变成沙发的
五斗柜，每件物品都是独一无二的——而且是环保的，使用了原本会被丢弃的东西。
“We live in a system where we’re constantly striving to buy new things ...
but in light of the economic conditions the country is facing, you can now
think of your scrap as something with potential or something that you can use
to make something new and different,” Abougendy told Reuters.
Many of the items that 25-year-old Abougendy uses at his upcycling company
Mobikya are given to him by clients for repurposing as something new.
“The more scrap they give to us, the less they have to pay,” he said.
The used tyres, one of the firm’s most commonly used materials, are acquired
from mechanics before they can be sent off for burning - one of the causes of
Cairo’s smog. (Reporting by Mohamed Zaki; Writing by Nadine Awadalla;

埃及首都开罗，近期路边出现特别的“猫窝”，这款猫窝由废弃轮胎制成，摆在街头，让
流浪猫可以躲在里头避寒。
埃及开罗、吉萨等城市路边都摆上这款经过设计的猫窝，除了环保外也兼具美观，外观
经过上色，就像装置艺术，分成2猫房型以及5猫房型，让流浪猫有避冬的地方，又能
兼顾市容。
该猫窝的设计师阿布降狄（Ibrahim Abougendy）表示，虽然猫可以在严苛的环境下生存
，但因气候变迁的影响，埃及也有降雪、下大雨的状况，让流浪猫的生活更艰辛，所以设
计了这款猫窝，帮助猫咪遮风挡雨。
因猫窝是废弃轮胎制成，主要材质为橡胶的轮胎，可以有隔热效果，目前改造了2猫、5猫
房型，猫窝可堆叠，也很方便搬运。
