Recycoool: Recycled Inner-Tube (?) Furniture
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA

With names like "The Master," "The Big Yogi," and "Nirvana," you might expect something different than these ultra-mod, totally tubular (couldn't resist) designs. Created by pumping air into recycled inner tubes given structure by a metal framework, the collection of furniture features a handful of chairs and lounges, a bench and a couple of tables; while they fall a bit closer to art than everyday furniture (and you wouldn't want to let you cat scratch or practice knife-juggling too close to them), we do like the shape and "bubbliness" afforded by the air-filled construction; you just may want to keep a tire patch kit around.
