Humble cardboard has been the material of choice for architect Shigeru Ban, who's already built a cathedral, pavilion, and hut from the stuff. And now, it's the premise of a new tiny home venture.

The "Wikkelhouse" is constructed from wrapping 24 layers of high-strength cardboard around a house-shaped mold.

The resulting structure, which is completely recyclable and expected to last 100 years, is then topped with a waterproof coating and wood paneling.
