These household and office products come as single, flat pieces of recycled cardboard, pre-cut and perforated, with simple instructions. They are easily assembled, without glue or materials, into clocks, pen-holders, lamps, and other items of day-to-day utility. Designer Eduardo Alessi conceived of the simple, single sheet of cardboard as production module because it efficiently reduces waste material and minimizes the weight and volume of each product for shipping.
