Green Furniture Cut

Green Furniture Cut from Cardboard: Collection at CNET

http://www.treehugger.com/cardboard-furniture-design.jpg
CNET takes a gander at a smattering of cardboard furniture, answering the question, "What does cardboard furniture have to do with technology?" and helping to lend credibility to what essentially amounts to paper design. TreeHugger loves the stuff -- we've seen it everything from cradles to coffins -- so we're glad to see that it's getting picked up elsewhere.

Eagle-eyed readers will recognize the Wiggle stool and Frank Gehry-designed Wiggle chair pictured above; we're liking Cardboard Designs' "Liquid Cardboard" and are impressed that cardboard is now being used in sturdy pieces like this armoire, disguising the humble nature of its core material.
