Created by London’s Cardboard Future, The Paperweight Desk is made of grade A white double walled corrugated board, a solid board, and water varnished desk top with edge protectors.  It has 2 chamfered legs that can be either inset or outset, a deep cable management tray, cable outlet slots, twin flaps in desk top for cable access, and best of all it only takes an average of three minutes to assemble!  In addition to the Paperweight desk, the line of sustainable furniture also includes a pedestal drawer unit, shelf unit, fourleg table, and round table, all made from the same recycled materials.

    Practicality and simplicity seem to never fade. These designs seem like they’re such an influence from the 80’s.
    Awesome shots, I love this blog!
    My company, Envirotech Office Systems – sells, leases and refurbishes used office furniture, can I please leave this link? That’d be much appreciated.
    Look forward to more have a good one!
