Project
EXAMPLES
The main material is magazines and other materials that have been found suitable; they
are then covered in an eco friendly resin which helps to keep the water out.
Recycled Phone Book Coffee Table
The combination of found furniture and solid timber turns these unique and stylish tables
into quirky conversation pieces.
Made from scrap lumber and forklift pallets this small table uses resources that would
otherwise end up in landfills. It resembles the skeleton of some small prehistoric beast.
Recycled Paper Table. This table is made of 100% post-consumer recycled paper board.
Recycled Wine Barrel Table
Utensils
Snowboards
Console table made from recycled material
Both the stool and table are made from 95 percent recycled materials! Lloyd stacks and fuses
together locally salvaged offcuts of various colors of sheet material. The bases are topped with
glass or a circular piece of the same layered material — which could have been cut from the very
material supporting it. The resulting furniture has a rainbow layer cake effect that would
complement any apartment.
