Why recycle cardboard when you can use it to build the interior and exterior of the cardboard Smart ForTwo. The last thing the world needs is more cardboard boxes anyway.
The cardboard Smart ForTwo is being designed by artist Sarah Illenberger and CD Cartondruck AG. Smart has commissioned the project to show that their cars aren't disposable in addition to highlighting their eco-friendliness. Check out images of the car which is set to be on display at the Paris Motor Show from September 28th to October 17th.
