It’s called ‘LiquidCardboard ’ - malleable yet sturdy enough to create many useful shapes. Best let Cardboardesign describe their own creation. “They move freely - flowing from one shape to another. Each item can transform into many different shapes from vases, bowls, platters, candle holders, stress toy or a cool table top decoration.”
Cardboardesign Sales Manager Barbara Henszey elaborated on Liquidcardboard by saying, “Cardboardesign products combine a cool-looking aesthetic in durable, non-toxic, earth-friendly furniture.” She continued, “A perfect choice for any green’ household, Cardboardesign combines ‘high style’ with ‘eco-friendly’…it’s furniture that is fun and functional!”
When they were showing these products at a recent tradeshow I found their booth was overflowing of people into the aisle. It was easy to see everyone was amazed with this unique creation of form and functionality. This is a true case of form follows function and when using one’s imagination anyone can see a use/application for it.
