The Best Green Designs From 100% Design London!

<a href="http://www.100percentdesign.co.uk/">100% Design</a> opened its doors during the <a href="http://inhabitat.com/london-design-week/">London Design Festival</a> with an incredible exhibition of over 4,000 designs, and team Inhabitat was on the scene to bring you the best green designs from this year's cutting edge crop of designers. From incredible examples of transforming furniture to innovative applications of green textiles and materials like Corian and cork, read on to see our favorite finds from this year's show!

<a href="http://www.ten-plan.com">Ten Plan</a> took a central position in the <a href="http://www.100percentdesign.co.uk/">100% Design</a> exhibition as they presented the work of 10 well established designers that focus on sustainability. Each design is accompanied by instructions for people to make their own using local materials, and the designers sought to create " a sense of ownership, to keep rather than just consume". The project shown above is the Outdoor Kitchen by <a href="http://www.studiomama.com/">Nina Tolstrop</a>, which is a simple design that enables people to enjoy cooking outside.

The <a href="http://www.buzzispace.com/">Buzzispace</a> furniture installation displayed some bright, creative options for dividing spaces, such as the <a href="http://www.buzzispace.com/buzzibooth.php">Buzzibooth.</a> All of their furniture makes use of felt that is either recycled from plastic bottles or from recycled wool.

Brothers and Sisters by <a href="http://www.amosdesign.cz">A.M.O.S Design </a>stood out as a simple, yet quirky design that is made of Corian and encourages indoor gardening by through an integrated plant pot.

Corian also added a great interactive element to their the exhibition: a ping pong table that can be divided up into different sizes depending on how many players there are.

<a href="http://www.biotecture.uk.com">Bio Tecture</a> worked with <a href="http://www.100percentdesign.co.uk/page.cfm/Action=Exhib/ExhibID=2048">Corian</a> to create these Living Art panels, which create a durable surface for indoor and outdoor planting.

<a href="http://www.neilconley.co.uk/Neil%20Conley%203D%20design.html">Neil Conley</a> presented his Xendless project, which explores the possibility of creating a sustainable carbon fiber composite. We loved this exciting experiment in materials that examined the possibilities for composite recycling - the final product he created in his experiments was a dark carbon urn.

<a href="http://www.bettinanissen.com">Bettina Nissen</a> exhibited her Rustic Bench as part of the <a href="http://www.designnetworknorth.org/">Design Network North</a>. Her beautiful stainless steel outdoor furniture encourages a natural patina - when exposed to the natural elements, a distinctive pattern will slowly reveal itself over time.

<a href="http://www.lornasyson.co.uk">Lorna Sysson</a> literally brings the outdoors in with her tactile Hedgerow Collection. Lorna's handmade work utilizes green materials from Camira that combine nettles and wool... although you are guaranteed not to get stung when snuggling in to them!

<a href="http://www.designnation.co.uk/index.php?style=profile&amp;category=fur&amp;accessID=902&amp;offset=0&amp;searchType=key&amp;searchWhere=int&amp;cat=&amp;keyword=gavin+coyle">Gavin Coyles</a>'s outdoor bird house designs were exhibited with Design Nation. Our favourite was the spaceship-like Cork Bird House, a neat flatpack design that can be easily assembled.
