Digging This Garden Furniture
March 12, 2012 by Robin Plaskoff Horton
Ok, let’s call a spade a table. Using aluminium, pop rivets, hose clamps, and found spades, Stockholm designer Fredrik Paulsen has created the Garden Table.
Garden tools are also inspiration to Dutch designer Nic Roex in the form of his Bats Stools for which Roex employs a spade for the seat atop a concrete or mahogany base.
The Batsen (means spades in Dutch), below, is a bench created from multiple spades held together with an intricate metal frame.
