Take a look at what happens when students with green cells (I use this term more then often) and a green thumb are squeezed to get the best of their creativity skills. Dubbed as the Re-Furnished project for students from University of Idaho, it revolved around using found or used cardboard to craft usable furniture. Did you know that Cardboard, especially when recycled, can be a very green, versatile and durable natural material? My personal favorite is the curvy stool, which uses pressed corrugated cardboard to create a solid structure, and hides some storage inside. Can’t wait to grab it for my den.


Even the geometric, sturdy-looking stool looks like it could take on a number of functions. While the solid lounger looks like it was a labor of love, painstakingly created with hundreds of sandwiched layers.
