Coreiture

These are photos of furniture I made using recycled cardboard core tubes. I salvaged these cores from the graphics department at the design agency I work for. More at coreiture.com. Enjoy!

Hey Dude, you are one smart cookie. Like the magazine holder and LOVE the table! If I made one for myself (which I don't have room for, sigh) I would paint the table top either glossy black or red. That would be so slick!!!!!! Going to your site next, hope its up!

Hi Elax, I think your stuff is awesome. I would definitely like to make one of those tables however I'm not exactly sure where I can get the cardboard tubes. Do you have any recommendations?

That coffee table is absolutely gorgeous! It's mind-boggling the things you can do with cardboard. Beautiful!

Thanks for your comment. The first photo is a divider wall, I call "Radiator".
The next is a magazine rack. The tube table, which I built first. The last is of a stool, I refer to as the "stump". Its actually very comfortable. Minimal tools used, no glue, tape or hardware. Black shock cord holds it all together with a few knots. Cheers!
