With the fear of global warming looming, everyone has become extremely wary about recycling and their garbage habits, which is exactly why these Martino Gamper furniture designs are so darn ingenious.
Martino Gamper has spent two years collecting discarded furniture from the streets of London, family and friends. He then spent 100 days to create 100 newly-designed chairs. The structure of each Martino Gamper chair is completely bizarre and out of whack but hey, at least they make a statement.
