Photos: Cardboard furniture keeps it green
French designer Eric Guiomar began sculpting furniture from discarded corrugated cardboard boxes 15 years ago and became enchanted with the material. Guiomar seeks out the giant boxes from windshields and other car parts from auto repair centers. Boxes housing equipment from printing shops also come in handy.
This image shows how building a piece of cardboard furniture from old boxes can be similar to crafting the hull of a boat. The result is light, yet deceptively durable.
