Repurposing materials is nothing new but we are currently seeing more and more designers using this method to create intriguing new pieces. Armadiature by Robi Renzi is a line of armoires made from salvaged wooden scraps.
Renzi assembles the recycled wood like a jigsaw puzzle into unique and creative cabinets. A mixture of textures and styles creates an interesting collage. There are identifiable pieces like doors, old vanities and ornate table legs alongside decorative scraps that don't have immediately clear origins.
