The Pieces Together furniture collection has been crafted using the scraps from the designer's East London workshop. The use of such materials might not be very exciting or new, but the way they have been used certainly is. Embracing the eclectic nature of the once discarded materials, the Pieces Together furniture collection is a mishmash of shapes, colors and more.

Designed by United Kingdom-based designer and craftsman Sam Scott of Constructive and Co. in collaboration with internationally renowned ceramist Carol McNicholl, the Pieces Together furniture collection is filled with creative and eye-popping creations. According to Design Milk, "Sam considers his work like the LEGO of the cabinet-making world."

The Pieces Together furniture collection will be exhibited in One Canada Place at the Canary Wharf until mid-November.
