It is hard to believe sometimes the amazing and simply astounding designs, shapes, patterns and accessories that a DIY contest can throw up. Nothing shouts out reuse better than this wonderfully shaped and cozy looking Drops Chair designed by Camilla Hounsell Halvorsen of Norway.

Crafted from what looks like a giant tube of some thrown-away wheel’s inner-tube and wrapped with elegance using recycled upholstery material, it looks like one giant doughnut on a four-legged stainless steel stand. With a simple, minimalist feel that exuding plenty of charm with its comfortable appearance, it’s available in blue but you can always try it with black and white strips.

There is absolutely no reason why anyone cannot craft up something similar with very little time and energy spent on it. Right? [via Inhabitat]
