students do you live in a cardboard box ?
lewis barnes from milton keynes has made a novel aproach to lessen the hassle of moving locations of residence (proberbly for students  ) by creating furniture made of cardboard.
Quote:
"The handle on the stand allows items to remain in the desk, allowing quick and easy moving," he said.
"I have used cardboard so after its useful life it can be easily recycled and also helps keep the costs low, making it ideal for a temporary lifespan.
"The idea comes after many years of packing my belongings to go back home at the end of term. Not only do you have to pack to leave but you also have to unpack when you get home," he said.

Ah, but you're forgetting this is designer furniture, which means it is still cr@p, but cost 3 times as much...
