State Shaped Furniture

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Jared Rusten California Furniture Showcases Regional Pride and Style

— July 30, 2011 — Art & Design
The Jared Rusten California influenced furniture takes the concept of state pride to a whole 'nother level.

Jared Rusten is the proprietor of the J. Rusten studio, an independent solid-wood furniture, sculpture, and artwork shop that aims to alter the furniture game by replacing traditional, stagnant designs with the avant-garde and fresh.

And that's exactly what Rusten's latest creation is. Designed in the shape of his home state of California, Rusten is selling two coffee tables and two desks, both built with salvaged Claro Walnut, a commodity indigenous to California.

The large desk will run you, $2,950, the medium desk is $2,350, the medium coffee table is $2,250, and the small coffee table is $1,650. If I were from Cali, this Jared Rusten designed furniture would be at the top of my 'to buy' list. Nothing says state pride and originality like such odd and cool furniture.
Trend Themes
1. Regional Pride Furniture - Creating furniture inspired by specific regions allows for unique and personalized design options.
2. Avant-garde Furniture Design - Breaking away from traditional designs opens up opportunities for innovative and unconventional furniture creations.
3. Salvaged Material Furniture - Using salvaged materials not only promotes sustainability but also adds a distinctive and eco-friendly element to furniture design.
Industry Implications
1. Home Furnishings - Incorporating regional pride into furniture designs can attract consumers looking for unique and culturally significant pieces for their homes.
2. Interior Design - Avant-garde furniture designs offer interior designers an opportunity to create bold and artistic spaces that stand out from traditional designs.
3. Sustainable Furniture - The use of salvaged materials in furniture production can appeal to environmentally-conscious consumers and contribute to the growing market for sustainable furniture.
