Pallet Tables


RESPONSIBLE DESIGN

Designers have a responsibility to create practical living spaces that utilize materials that otherwise would go to waste. Pallet tables and seating areas pictured below are just a few clever ways to recycle "one man's trash" and transform it into a stylish and functional space.

TREASURE




Simply stacking 2 pallets as a coffee table. It matches well with the natural wood floor to create a neutral palate of colors to work with in the room.




2 Pallets joined by 4x4s on the corners. Stain to desired color, add wheels. Portable outdoor furniture. Affordable, Easy, and Useful!






Another simple stacked Pallet design coffee table, great for storage (shelf)





With a heavy canvas or waterproof fabric, this could be a great outdoor furniture piece

wire 
the 'wire' series (manufactured by domeau & peres) are welcoming seats 
and sofas in the library lounge, characterized by a curved metal rod that is 
harmonically unjustified in its clustered complexity, positioned under each
seat.



 'cinema seats' by david lynch (manufactured by quinette)

cinema seats 
the cinema seats (manufactured by quinette) are the result of 
a special ergonomic study that has been conducted to match a spacious and 
atypical manner to experience the cinema viewing. the seat owns a reduced 
inclination and straightforward geometry to allow the guests a liberated position. 
each seat has its leg stretch pouf, tray, lamp and uncompromised space. 
projected bronze has been applied to the entire support of the seat.





silencio club owners arnaud frisch, manu barron and anthony caton invited david lynch 
to create a 'unique club experience' the result is a new space located at 42 rue montmartre 
that is inspired by and named after club silencio from the film mulholland drive made by 
lynch in 2001.

Swedish Designed Furniture

This Swedish design furniture by Svenskt Tenn is an artful mix of modernist and heritage, old and new, color and pattern. Josef Frank and Estrid Ericsson founded the company and created a blended style boasting Viennese elegance and Swedish functionalism. Not your grandmother’s furniture, these sofas and chairs definitely call to mind that bygone era but with a decidedly modern edge. The funky, vibrant upholstery is trendy yet timeless, while the frames are clearly inspired by the classics, built to last with a look that will never go out of style. The sofas boast plush cushions and a double-spring system for the ultimate in comfort. The chairs, meanwhile, come in a variety of different shapes and details that would look great as an eclectic mix-and-match collection in the dining room or living area. More information on this design furniture is available by visiting Svenskt Tenn.
