Granted you'd need a lot of spare time to assemble these into anything meaningful, there is something very appealing about the cardboard modular Bloxes system. What started as a side art project of Aza Raskin (son of Jef Raskin - Mac interface designer) has now become a business venture. So what are Bloxes?

... essentially 3D cardboard legos that ship flat, and fold up in modular building blocks that are strong enough to stand on. While they aren't tech per se, we use them for building tables, walls, cubicles, and desks.

Every year we see the concept of low-cost cardboard furniture get rehashed--it's the classic student project--but this is one of the nicer solutions, maybe more as a wall divider or glass coffee table base, as the charm of working on cardboard furniture runs its course pretty quickly.
