Sean @ Make: Online spotted this shelf made entirely from recycled copies of National Geographic magazine. Designer Sean Miller is responsible for this unique home decor:
Sean coated the magazines with a a water/starch mixture and then he placed them under pressure for about a week to harden. Next he took a band saw to the consolidated stack and carved out space for a shelf. Holes were also cut into the bookshelf’s sides, allowing it to slide onto three rods to be hung. About 80 mags were used.
