Abstract

Focus of this paper is to reduce dependence of interior design and construction activities on wood as natural resources and preserve them from extinction. An implementation is with exploring alternative sources of raw materials that are new, have no impact and are environmental friendly.Beginning, several experimental stages have been carried out by utilizing urban waste: paper waste and dry leafs, to be developed as a raw material.And the type of material chosen to be made: panel.Some reasons are easy treatment of materials, easy achieving shape, easy of environmental adaptation, and influence of design environment.Several production trials have been carried out.From these, a production method that called the 'vertical cross configuration' was born.This advanced experiments can produce a solid, hard and strong prototype panel.It is called ‘comboard’.From laboratory test, known that comboard has physical capabilities equivalent to plywood / multiplex that already exists.
