The state of our planet depends on society's ability to adapt to sustainable practices, so one can find reassurance in a product like the Dany Gilles 800g Library. The very weight of the project is one way you can metaphorically assess the depth of its ecological footprint, but the [interlocking shelf system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qurv) is much more genius than that.

Made entirely from [recycled scraps of cardboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tronco), the Dany Gilles 800g Library was devised using a seemingly complex but rather simple method of construction. Revealing the cut and slotted state of individual components, the designer shows how easy it is to do our part.
