Amsterdam ad agency Nothing has manifested its name in its office space by building it entirely out of cardboard. The idea was conceived by Alrik Koudenburg who wanted to use the most "nothing" building material he could find. The space was designed by Joost van Bleiswijk and uses a no-screw-no-glue technique. Beyond that, the walls double as a creative canvas for the creative agency, allowing clients and staff to leave their mark. Not only does it amaze me that everything from the desks, shelves, stairs, and pillars are made from cardboard, but that it all looks so polished and streamlined. There's nothing "trashy" about it.

It's a beautiful job! But the first thing I thought of was, "oh geez, if the building ever catches fire the cardboard will all be gone in about ten seconds!"
1wmoonw, I thought "oh jeez that place must smell bad" and "oh jeez what if someone spills a drink on their desk?"
2Wow, looks great!!
3Why would it smell bad?
4Yeah, I would definitely spill my hot coffee all over my desk and turn it into mush. Oiy.
5I like the smell of cardboard...but I'm also five months pregnant
This is an
awesome idea, way to develop the concept.
6Intense!!
7I meant the smell of cardboard, haha. I suppose "bad" was a bad word to use.
