For self-confessed car freak Steve Heller, his love of 1950's Cadillac models inspired him to thread into the sphere of furniture design. Heller has built functional art such as chests, tables, bars, entertainment units, beds and dressers from metal and wood and the result of his efforts are really something to behold.
“The Autoart section on his website Fabulous Furniture is full of amazing pieces of functional art that draw inspiration form cars in one way or the other†says designblog.
Really amazing what you can do when you have a passion for something.
