As is apparent, recycled furniture is one hot trend right now. Several designers are using their talents and gathering from inspiration to create beautiful upholstered furniture with recycled fabric. These artists are gaining motivation from the fabrics themselves. Some draw on the textiles patterns or that of the combination of several different patterns on multiple remnants.

Such custom pieces are outstanding additions to living areas in both the visual sense and environmentally. One of the most fascinating parts to this approach to design is to understand what the original source, or sources looked like, and then to see the recycled furniture.

Often a major metamorphosis has occurred, and the rebirth of a chair, couch, bench, pillow or ottoman is glorious and unexpected. To say the least, the before and after photos are mesmerizing.
