At this moment there 4 of us blogging on a regular basis.Work, studies and social life makes that there are weeks with a lot of posts, and weeks without. But we’ll do our best in bringing you the nicest shit on a acceptable basis.

Posted this one some time ago, but since it was written in dutch it wasn’t online anymore.

These lounge chairs are made out of old traffic signs hanging above the Belgian Highways. When they are to old, or information changes, they go to the dump. The main material used in these boards is thin polyester. Thin, because it has to let light shine through.

The seats are very strong and can perfectly stay outside because of the strong material.

By using this material in an other context people start thinking about reusing material for other purposes.

It’s a great concept, my favorite piece of furniture in the exhibition. And I love the first picture. I really wonder how you got this board =)
