Reclaimed wood furniture is usually so predictable: large upcycled beams from buildings, or slabs of driftwood turned into benches and stools. Thats why Brent Comber’s unique reclaimed wood furniture – made from bundles of small irregular pieces – is such a breathe of fresh air. We discovered the Canadian designer’s innovative, eco-friendly furniture last year at ICFF, and it was one of our favorite things at New York Design Week. This year we are excited to see Brent Comber back and better than ever, with a beautiful new line of work called “Shattered”.

With so many freelancers looking for spots in cafes and bars to set up temporary offices, Aberrant Architecture came up with this idea of creating work desks that can double-up as game tables post “office hours”. Designed with London pubs in mind, by day the tables are elegant bureau-style desks, and by night a drawer containing a pub game transforms their unadorned surfaces into spaces ready for some fun-filled socializing and play.

Springtime is turning trash into luxurious materials for their cool new line of Re:composed furniture pieces. Re:composed focuses on using waste destined for the dumpster as a base material for beautiful new decor. By fusing the two unlikely concepts together, Re:composed pushes individuals to consider conservation and the value of the trash they’d normally toss without a care.

Folditure‘s Leaf chair is the world’s thinnest luxury folding chair combining high-tech components with age-old artisanal craftsmanship. With the release of a button, the elegant streamlined form of the Leaf transforms into a super-slim design made for easy storing, with the ability to hang in closets. At less than ¾ of an inch when folded, the Leaf is the most space-saving folding chair ever made, with a set of four chairs taking up the same amount of room as one winter coat.

Easy Chair is a basic wooden chair splashed with every color in the rainbow. The chair was designed by Stockholm-based designer Fredrik Paulsen, who spent time experimenting with different wood-dying techniques while studying at the Royal College of Art. The colorful, tie-dye-style chair guarantees to add a touch of cheerful color to any room.

Here’s one design that really “cleaned up” at New York Design Week – an LED lamp disguised as a broom. Spotted by our editors at ICFF, the MoodBroom by Peteris Zilbers looks like a mundane mop at first glance, but upon further inspection, you can see that it is actually a source of light. The quirky design is named for the fact that its light color can be switched to match the owner’s mood, and the humorious lamp had showgoers doing double-takes all day long.

Bibliophiles are sure to get a kick out of BRC Designs‘ new “Spineless” chair, which is made up of the spines of hundreds of old books. Spotted at ICFF this past weekend, the literally literary seat has a color-blocked design that references Mondrian. The designer, Benjamin Rollins Caldwell, explained that he obtained many of the books for free at thrift shops and selected the spines that had the most titillating titles.

So you finally got around to hanging some hooks on the wall by your front door, or maybe you even bought a coat rack, but what about your keys, your phone, your dog’s toys, and all the other various tchotchkes you carry around? That’s where Matthew Plumstead‘s delightful, and oh-so-simple-you’ll-wonder-why-you-didn’t-think-of-it-yourself Clip Tree comes in. We spotted this charming design at this year’s ICFF during New York Design Week, and not only is it practical, but it looks great!

French designer Philip Starck is exhibiting his elegant recycled Broom Chair at this year’s bustling ICFF. Made from 90% recycled industrial waste, the Broom Chair made its debut at Milan Furniture Fair, where we first spotted its classic, sustainable form. Designed for Emeco — the firm who made the 111 Navy Chair from recycled plastic bottles back in 2010 — this gorgeous piece is creating a quite stir at the NYC Design Festival.
