Laptop stand created from a single sheet of recycled paper supports up to 10 pounds — the included cardboard case also serves as a phone stand

G.stand laptop origami paper laptop stand.

Sustainable design firm grape lab offers a laptop stand, called g.stand laptop, made from a single piece of recycled paper using origami techniques to provide strength and rigidity. Because of this, the paper stand could hold up to ten pounds or 4.5 kg, meaning it can carry most 13- to 15-inch laptops, all while weighing less than 1.6 ounces or 45 grams. Once you’re done working on your computer, you could collapse the stand to 1.2 inches or three cm, allowing you to slide it into its carry case for easy transport.

The included case for the laptop stand, which helps keep it closed and compact when not in use, is also made from recycled paper, keeping with the firm’s sustainability efforts. It also has a notch on one side, allowing you to use it as a phone stand while the laptop stand is in use.
