When it comes to outdoor seating, the options in the 'I am not a bath' by Helen Stephenson collection are surely some of the most kitsch because of how they rework old bathtubs.
Coming from the Edinburgh-based commercial artist, the chairs are crafter from sections of old bathtubs, which proves just how weather-resistant the designs will be.
The project came along when Stephenson was commissioned to created weatherproof sets to be used at a music festival with a very limited budget. What was created is beautiful seating with vibrant mosaics and truly one of a kind charm.
The chairs within the 'I am not a bath' by Helen Stephenson collection are not for sale by the looks of it, but interested parties can contact the designer to find out more.
