The wave of eco-friendly design has inspired a number of creations that use either recycled or reclaimed wood. I've included some of my favorite designs below. There are sculptures and dog houses made from driftwood, furniture made from recycled wood and green takes on traditional designs.
Check out these and more recycled and reclaimed wood creations below.
Implications - Consumers are drawn to eco-friendly products, and now list eco consciousness as criteria when it comes to purchasing decisions. Items such as twig furniture and green skateboards that promote a unique selling point of being recycled can appeal to this crowd as they feel that they are helping the environment. This is also self-satisfying for them.
