combining corrugated metal with a strong adhesive, the ‘no cardboard project’ by german designer philipp käfer
forms a durable side table. the lightweight material is well known in
aircraft and ship construction. its triple layered structure is composed
of one corrugated sheet glued between two flat ones, each made from
coated aluminum. the material, which is at most one millimeter thick can
easily be bent into shape; joining three together creates an incredibly
strong product. this ‘sandwich’ provides a high-level of rigidity
whilst being very thin, light and resistant to corrosion. the
multifunctional furniture piece portrays a sense of lightness even
though it is able withstand hundreds of kilos, ensuring its durability.
