It is chairs, this time! We take a look at some of the most creatively recycled chairs out there. There is no argument that some of these may not be the most comfortable ones to sit on, but there is also no denying the genius of their designers in thinking of new ways to add function to these objects.
First up, a chair made from gun shells! You never really know when they would come in handy!
Alexander Reh was dead serious when he said he would make a chair out of gun shells. The ‘Fully Loaded’ chair contains 450 .12 gauge shotgun shells, and are allegedly comfortable.
You have seen the gunshells. How about guns?
Spoons. Now you know what to do with those unwanted hard to recycle cutlery.
And if you happen to have those old wooden playbricks that you used to play with when you were a kid, how about shaping that into a chair?

If you thought the last 2 may not be comfortable to sit on, how about the Pencil Chair? Ouch!
The meltdown chair: No, it’s not the financial one, but we are talking about plumbing tubes. This chair by Tom Price is made by heating and fusing together common plumbing tubes.
Tom Price has apparently got more up his sleeve.
Chair made from clothes
Chair made from crumpled polypropylene sheets
Chair made from PVC hose
Chair made from rope
Curious how Tom makes these chairs? Check this video out on how he made the above chair:
The screw chair by Revol Design made from scraps of douglas fir and 3,726 drywall screws.
Tube Chair made from steel scrap.
We are just getting started. People have tried to make chairs from whatever stuff they normally throw away including old CDs…
wine corks…

hey these chairs r amazing…
Anyone knows which website that show us how to do a mini cardboard chair? Coz i am rushing a project on it. Emai me the website if u know one.
Great chairs……May need to make couches out of the corks and beer cans though for the day after.
what would be really helpful is links to places where you can obtain these chairs and find further info about supply and prices.
It is amazing how many wonderfully creative things can come out of what most consider waste. Some of the ideas are fantastic! If there are any ideas that could be shared with me so that I can work them here in Bolivia I would be truly grateful. Thanks!
