The Organ Furniture Collection by Benjamin Rollins Caldwell

— June 7, 2010 — Art & Design
Designer Benjamin Rollins Caldwell conceived the Organ Furniture Collection as a range of home furnishings with an almost organic aesthetic. Consisting of a glass-top coffee table, armchair and a bed frame the Organ Furniture Collection may remind some more of the calcified interior of a bat cave than a musical instrument.

Made from grey PVC pipes cut to varying lengths just like those in a church organ, the Organ Furniture Collection is quite eco-friendly. The cushioning that appears on the armchair is actually made of thousands of white foam balls stuffed into a plastic casing. Click through the gallery to see the entire Organ Furniture Collection.
