New TVs always come with outrageous amounts of packaging to protect them, all of which ends up on the curb. Samsung came up with the bright idea of helping its clients turn all the cardboard that comes with its Serif, Frame and Sero TVs into useful objects, including a cat house. A QR code printed on the boxes grants access to instructions manuals that show you where to cut and fold. The only issue cat owners will have (or those who are possessed by a cat, more like) is that the cat house quickly turns into shredded cardboard.

Gizmodo, Andrew Liszewski, “Samsung redesigned its TV boxes to be easily converted into cat houses and entertainment centers.”
