E-waste is an omnipresent problem in the electronics industry, where product sales are driven by planned obsolescence, and the constant cycling of gadgets every 2-4 years results in an incredible toll on both natural resources and landfill space.

Rather than introducing recycling programs to counter the aftermath of these cycles, Biasci’s design approaches the problem of e-waste head-on by calling for a computer case made from recycled and easily recyclable materials. The Cardboard Case comes complete with case panels, spots for cable connectors and ports, and interior slots for holding computer components. It is also easily customizable, offering a fun added incentive to consumers.
