bloomberg up cycled chair by Jaime Salm from usa

designer's own words:

When Bloomberg decided to replace their stationery and collateral with a new look, the company’s design team recognized an opportunity to create an example of sustainable design.

Their mission to evolve old business cards into a functional and beautiful object that would be enjoyed by employees world-wide brought them to MIO, a design firm recognized for working with materials that advance sustainable goals.

The result is a stool: sturdy enough to survive office use and elegant enough to contribute to Bloomberg’s dynamic environment. The stool mixes brushed, stainless steel legs with a warm, textured paper seat. Powder coated steel hardware offers minimal detail that completes a modern look. It is a clean and impelling representation of corporate responsibility and creative ingenuity.
