Suzanne Sharp is one half of The Rug Company . She and her husband, Chris, started The Rug Company with the idea that they would see rugs from a contemporary viewpoint without sacrificing quality and the traditional rug making skills. Inspired by the classical and armed with pure 21st century spirit, a good visual imagination and an inherent ability to know what works they soldiered on. It was a daunting task but it was a challenge that has been worth the effort.

Furniture made from pallets isn’t really anything new, but designer Pierre Vedel ‘s Pallet Chair is the first piece of furniture I’ve seen made from a pallet that isn’t instantly recognizable as a pallet. It’s made from one pallet, some clotheline (for the bottom), and two cushions from IKEA. Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook
