Modern Chair Made from an Old Radiator


110409_tf_radiatorchair1.jpgWe've seen tons of designers do their thing and make working radiators look oh-so-cool. But one designer in the Netherlands had his eye on a broken radiator...

 
 

Jeroen Wesselink was inspired by his broken radiator. With some power tools, yellow spray paint and plenty of elbow grease, he crafted a thoroughly modern chair from the out-of-use heat source.

If you've got the right tools and skills (the radiator is made from steel and required some intense sawing and welding), get inspired to make your own! Check out the video below to see exactly how he did it...

Funny, what they are re-purposing in the Netherlands we haven't even started purposing in the US.
