Portable, Flexible Cardboard Box Furniture

Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!
With more online shopping and more boxes, we want to make more uses out of these packaging boxes. Specifically, the idea behind this design is:
Simple: Easy to make, disassemble, reassemble, and carry around.
Flexible: The same components can be reorganized differently for various purposes.
Fun: The many, many possible arrangements of the boxes allow for a varied color spectrum.
Supplies
- Cardboard boxes (almost any number of boxes works)
- Tri fold display boards or other big sheets of cardboard (for bigger pieces of furniture)
- Binder clips (a lot)
- Paint (Optional)
