Cardboard Furniture

A small project in a freshman engineering class I took with a few others. My friends and I ended up using the results in our dorm, and they held up to a whole academic year of heavy use (and abuse).

Each furniture was made from many strips and strips of cardboard, cut on a table saw.

Two stools made from the strips.

Wrapping the small nightstand table. The entire table was made by wrapping strips around a central cardboard cylinder.

Detail of the supports built under the table to support the heavy top.
