Recycled Cutlery Chair By Osian Batyka-Williams
Designartist Osian Batyka-Williams discovered that some restaurants change their cutlery as often as every nine months (!) With The Cutlery Chair he demonstrates how these hard-to-recycle, unwanted pieces can be turned into a unique piece of furniture.
P.S. For those who scared by the idea of sitting down on some 150 spoons, forks, and knives - we heard Osian considered adding a cushion made from recycled napkins.

the reasoning behind this sculpture quite green-washed, just to gain a bit more attention. it's like Duchamp saying he saved an old urinal to make a new water fountain for the sake of the environment.
but---
hard to recycle? no way. they're stainless steel. melt, rinse, repeat.
unwanted? any homeless shelter, soup kitchen, school, or even small restaurant would want these.
are these all welded together? I can't imagine the energy used (human, electric, and gas - in joules) required to tack each one of these together.
again, beautiful art concept. but not "sustainable design".
