Green to the 10th degree


Asif Khan, a young London designer and architect recently debuted his latest work entitled, "Harvest Project." Coolhunting reviewed. Harvest Project is a small collection of chairs and a table. Not just any old table and chair--these are made from Baby's Breath, a local plant. Yes, raw green material for FURNITURE.

The plant has to go through some phases in order to aggregate and lock together. They mold, freeze-dry, then they are sculpted with a linseed oil-based resin.
They aren't cheap or durable, but... it is an interesting concept!

Here is another 'grown' product, presented by Core77. It's Tokujin's Yoshioka's 'Venus Chair.'
