According to NPS (National Packaging Survey) an estimated 30% by weight of overall municipal waste going to landfill consist of disposable packaging (cardboard is a big part of it).According to GVRD (Greater Vancouver Regional District) more than 100.000 tonnes of cardboard Cardboard is recycled each year in this areas, that’s grate.Profuse use of cardboard in packaging and boxes, its recollection and recycle, cost a lot in terms of product’s price and service taxes. So, why we are so reluctant in doing a direct reuse of it?
This is an opportunity to share experiences and ideas on Cardboard Design. A chance to enhance self expression, creativity and social innovation, while building useful or decorative objects, long lasting cardboard furniture, ephemeral toys or any other artistic creation. Cardboard, boxes and paper are part of domestic and industrial environments, recycling and reuse them during a workshop is a pedagogic approach to responsible design culture and sustainability.

This is a nice blog with very creative designs for cardboard re-use.I have tried to do some cardboard furniture and failed miserably. It'd be good if you could have some videos. Thank you.
