What a great chair - The ends of this accordion-like chair appear to be made from wood and the middle parts corrugated cardboard or perhaps thinner slices of wood. Might be worth playing around with some materials to see if it can be remade, for small apartments this chair/couch looks perfect.

This is most likely the same expandable corrigated cardboard that you can buy as silly hats in tourist attractions. Its industrial purpose seems to be in packing, but I'm not exactly sure when you'd use it. Think of hundreds of layers of cardboard all corrigated with flexible layers, and that's what it is.
Bonus points to any Maker tha can find a cheap supplier of this stuff for more projects! :)

Think of the space saving. Attach both sides to a small night stand and instant seating for more company. Build it into the wall.
