The goal of the teenage artists apprenticing at Artists for Humanity was to create a [green furniture line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/j395-chair-series). After considerable time and development they came up with ReVision furniture which is made from [junk mail and magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nytt-lys-collection) â€œOnce the pieces are assembled, the surfaces are finished with a no-voc eco-friendly resin which is water resistant and easy to clean with eco-friendly products.â€ The tables cost between $300-650.

The Boston based Artists for Humanity group mentors [urban youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atlanta-airport-chairs) by providing them â€œwith the keys to self-sufficiency through paid employment in the arts.â€ The teenagers are also exposed to the concept of sustainable living.
