The specialty about the designs was that they were created out of organic stuffs, like- paper and glass after days of hard work.
While giving the details to the spectators, the students revealed that front wheels and bar tables were made out of bullock wheels, metal, wooden blocks, rope (rope) and bicycles; while the rocking chair and the wall clock were made using old cycle tire rings, old chairs, metal and jute, and, scorpion chair and Cat Houses were made from the unusable water drums and cotton.
