Yes that’s right cardboard. It doesn’t look like it does it? Now there’s nothing new about cardboard furniture; Frank Gehry was making it back in the late sixties, and his wiggle side chair is still available now, but it’s certainly becoming more mainstream.

Made from extra strong cardboard with a varnished desk top, the two chamfered legs can be positioned in two ways, depending on your preference. According to the blurb, it can be assembled in three minutes (take that Ikea) and comes with a cable management tray as well as slots for cables to access your equipment so they don’t have to trail all over the top.

The Paperweight was launched in 2010 and the range now includes a storage cabinet that fits underneath.

The POP chair is polymer air moulded chair, 100 per cent recyclable, uses no screws and costs £35. Exactly.
According to Nigel’s Eco Store, who also sell the desk, with moderate use it should last for ten years, with heavy use three. Even so that makes it pretty good value for money.
