Using recycled wooden pallets, the 'Pallet Chair & Table' by Gas & Air Studios is a handmade creation that comes in 14 different of summer colors (all crafted with solvent-free paint). Perfect for cottage living, the Pallet Chair & Table is foldable and thus able to transform itself from chair to table and back.
These eco-friendly chairs make good use of the thousands of wooden pallets that remain unused around the world.
Implications - So why not take the things that normally occupy factories and grocery stores and turn them into something equally useful after they can no longer serve their primary use. Just be careful now, you wouldn't want to accidentally give yourself a nasty splinter!
