20100121701

To do away with those not-so-eco-friendly materials used to manufacture computers, Brenden Macaluso has come up with ‘Recompute’, a sustainable desktop computer with a slick cardboard case.

Cardboard guest bed

If you do not have enough room for guests, a foldable bed is a smart choice. But traditional foldable bed is usually made from steel and so it is not easy to move. So, you need a cardboard one like this. It is made from 7 mm thick cardboard that is folded like an accordion.
