Biodegradable table?


I discovered this design on inhabitat.com. Called a conversation table, this is made from recycled corrugated cardboard that's stacked on top of each other and shaped like a speech bubble. Between the layers of cardboard are plywood spacers. It is supposedly lightweight, sturdy, and there's even some space to store a few things. Designed by Leo Kempf, there's also a matching curved wall shelf. Now that I'm aware that cardboard furniture is a possibility I think with the right modern decorative furniture and color combinations, this table would be a great piece for a room. The design is simple as well as the functionality, but the best part is that it is constructed from recycled materials. The only negative part about the article was that it lacked information on when the item would be available and at what cost.
