Furniture for the comics fan

Diagram showing origins of coffee table design
I saw this really cool piece of furniture the other day on Neatorama. It was a coffee table in the shape of a speech balloon, shown in a living room setting. But it got even cooler when I clicked through to the originating site, which features a collection of furniture made out of cardboard by Leo Kempf.

Taking inspiration from Frank Gehry's cardboard furniture, Kempf set out to make inexpensive furniture out of cardboard and plywood. His site shows you how he chose the materials, cut the pieces, and put them together. Kempf also provides notes on what didn't work and how he resolved those issues.
