Recycled motorbikes to Giger Alien furniture
Recycling old car and motorbike parts to make furniture is one thing but trying to eat soup while an Alien is staring up at you is another altogether.
H.R.Giger’s creation and Ripley’s nemesis aren’t usually known for their servile attitudes but somehow the bods at Yes I Can have convinced the concentrated HCL-filled killing machines to do some work for the benefit of mankind by carrying large pieces of glass and allowing us to sit in their laps…

Swampstool – heat-sensitive furniture from Visual Reference Studio
I’m not sure how Visual Reference Studio has done it but somehow they’ve convinced the world that Global Hypercolour is a good idea again.
