Designer Deger Cengiz has created this beautiful and polished wooden furniture out of old water towers. The leaning shelves and chair look sleek, beautiful and, well, not upcycled.
The furniture uses no screws and is joined together with grooves and joints in the wood. Deger Cengiz is quite talented, making the shelves simple to install -- simply lean them on the wall and they're good to go. I love the look of Deger Cengiz's furniture and the fact that it's good for the world.
