Vouwwow
Vouwwow [Dutch] – to pronounce as Vow Wow and which I would translate as Wow it Folds – is a cardboard strip that is easy to carry, easy to fold into a chair and easy to produce.
Vouwwow can be taken to the park or an event, anywhere that you would want a chair. I can also see temporary events use this cheap transportable chair. Vouwwow by Maartje Nuy and Joost van Noort won the Thonet / Mart Stam prize [Dutch] for innovative chair design.

Wow is right! Very aesthetic, and if it won the prize, it must be pretty stable and practical as well.
Just ran into the somewhat similar child’s seat “Feedaway” by the Australian designer Anthony Dann: http://www.gimmii.nl/kinderlijk-eenvoudig.html
