You can't get more eco-conscious than the X Chair -- that is, unless you used material from this chair to create another chair. You may recall Trend Hunter Tiana Reid's article on Gas & Air Studios' Pallet Chair and Table. Well, the X Chair is the result of those leftover bits from previous designs.
The X Chair is indeed strong and chunky-looking. It also dismantles into two parts for convenient storage and moving purposes.
