Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Artists have long been inspired by the often - literally - priceless treasure of discarded packing materials, and the field of interior design is no exception. Here, the humble wooden pallet is recycled and transformed to create chic and original pieces of furniture, devised by some of Europe's most innovative designers - and, thanks to clear, step-by-step instructions and photographs, now you can build them for yourself. Whether bed, bookshelf, lamp or coffee table, each beautifully photographed project is accompanied by detailed plans and technical advice, making the pieces both simple and achievable. All you need is a little time and a few basic tools to create stylish, eco-friendly designer furniture for your own home.
