Most of us look for the the basics in a chair, things likeergonomic design, cushy padding and durable arm rests. But some intrepid designers look beyond to more eccentric ideas to use the recycling things. Sure, not every designer chair makes for the most comfortable seating, but they’re all awsome furniture. Here are our favorites:

Chair from recycled wine corks




Made from recycled wine corks by Gabriel Wiese, the chair burn acontemporary design.Gabriel Wiese has intelligently used the cork caps of the wine bottles, keeping the shapes intact.I don`t know if you can patient to collect all the corks in order to be able to make new pieces of furniture.

Chair made with caps


Created from thousands of caps, the chairs and also the table can be a unique outdoor furniture. You can use just one color for example red or you can mix the colors, you can play making a nice design

Recycled 55 Gallon Barrel Chair



Here is a surprisingly comfortable chair using only six small bolts, nuts and washers, six drywall screws, simple hand tools, a little ingenuity and a recycled 55-gallon plastic drum.Another good idea to make one, there is in total only 7 steps to made one design similar.

Plastic Tube Chair



Inspired by the ideas of Duchamp, he combines the found and the spirit of surrealism to create this thought provoking work. Not designed as beautiful, or even useful but as a inspiration for all of us to be creative and playful with the world around us, remixing and combining found objects into new uses, styles and departures.
