The SU Collection by Nendo and Emeco is made up of old recycled pieces of wood from barns. Instead of sourcing completely fresh wood, these two companies decided to turn something old into a modern design, and save a bit of the planet in the process.
Because these chairs are made from old wood, they have a rustic-like quality to them. The designers have added on steel legs to ensure the seats sturdiness, but the seating area is made from this reclaimed wood. For anyone currently decorating their place with an industrial vibe, the SU Collection will provide ample inspiration.
Nendo and Emeco did an admirable job with this design, making the most out of perfectly functional barn wood.
