I spotted these Reclaimed Horseshoe Chairs by Bruce White over on AHAlife a few days ago and I couldn’t stop thinking about them. Each and every piece Bruce makes is lovingly welded and sculpted by hand — from horseshoes with a history. He explains to AHAlife that he lays out all the shoes and hand selects them for each section of the chair. He also does a “fit test” to make sure the chair is comfortable. The final chair is powder-coated before it is ready for its new owner.

Although it may sound like it has something to do with taking money out of the bank, Drahtbank actually means “wire-bench.”
Designed by Johanna Dehio, the Drahtbank series consists of several metal frames of stools, tables and chairs in a variety of colors. Once the metal frames are chosen, they are matched with the user or designer’s preferred material of wood – planks, boards, old wooden panels – as seen above.
They are put together to get this:
The selection of wood materials plus the various metal shapes and colors allow for a plethora of possibilities, especially when the owner / user of the piece is involved.

Go nuts for DoNuts!

Although DoNuts looks like it could be used on the water, it is safe on land only.
DoNuts is created by Dirk Wynants, founder and main designer of Extremis. For more information, take a look at their website: http://www.extremis.be.

Piodão Group is has launched a brand new collection of rugs called Prêt-à-Porter that are just as exciting and colorful as their previous pieces . The “Any” rug, designed by Pedro & Rita Ferreira (Pedrita Studio – Lisbon, Portugal) follow the traditional Portuguese multicolor crochet hot-cloth’s where no threat is wasted and is truly a statement of sustainability. Following the brand’s philosophy, the wool left over from the factory’s regular production is re-rolled and reintroduced into the manufacturing process minimizing waste and environmental impact. The resulting material is then utilized to create a one-of-a-kind “Any” with a strong visual character reflecting the factory weekly production.
