Functional is the color green

While doing some research for my post in the Examiner today, I discovered this wonderful adaptation. It’s an expandable bench made of newspapers.

This is the stuff that makes me feel expansive, full of possibility. To my mind, the potential is vast for artists and innovators and all kinds of regular people to collaborate, support each others’ ideas and inventions, and move together toward something viable.

See the expandable bench here at Inhabitat. This is really just the tip of the green iceberg in terms of the innovation that’s out there. Do you know of other interesting sites that showcase art from reclaimed materials? Share them with us. I’m working on a list now for functional art, and I’d love your suggestions and input.

Cheers
Suzanna
