DESIGN FOR A DOLLAR

The Internation Contemporary Furniture Fair of 2009 gave way for budding designers to showcase their latest innovations in this years 'Design for a Dollar' show. Students of Pratt institute of New York were amongst those to partake in the ICFF, with some industrially inspired pieces, and others practical contemporary creations with a refreshing twist. Each creation brings new meaning to the idea of contemporary renewal, with the reconstruction of old materials and forms into something new; costing no more than a few dollars. From 'Design for a Dollar' you can expect to find egg carton light shades, Bowls made from disgarded bottle caps and 'magazine stools'. The list goes on, but we have compiled a few of our favourite pieces for your viewing pleasure.
