Recycled Bicycles make for Unique Furniture Design

Ecologically friendly, too, but as far different as you can possibly get from the Grow Your Own tree-based furniture that has so fascinated me recently — there’s a world of wonder at BikeFurniture.com.

Mostly made from recycled bicycle parts, some of Bike Furniture Design’s sleek ultra-modern furniture pieces also incorporate bits of “trains, planes, and automobiles” — if it’s in the realm of transportation, these guys can see a piece of furniture in it!

The Milano Lounge Chair … is constructed of chromed steel bicycle rims and is available with inner-tube upholstery or with cushions made with a wide choice of fabrics.

The rims that serve as arm rests on this chair can be fitted with tires or with inner-tubes only.

And that’s just darned clever.
