Truck Tires Relax Pedestrians
#92. Truck Tires Relax Pedestrians
Lazy chairs installed in Durban, Jan Körbes, 2008
Thirty “Lazy” chairs and fifteen “Four-Meal Drive” picnic tables made out of tires were put in a public park, allowing people to rest. A public market grew up around the site in Durban. Twelve more “Lazy” chairs were placed in bus shelters where the city of Durban had supplied only metal railings to lean on. The chairs and the picnic tables were made of defective tires diverted from the landfill and simply joined with screws. Assembly was rapid, and the furniture was installed in one afternoon. Millegomme is an international collective who work with tires.

Interesting concept
wow nice truck, allowing people to rest in a public park??cool!.. i would definitely visit that place..lol.. by the way aside from the tires that you improvised, like for example if you have an old ford truck.. what are the things that you can actually do to make it useful if its not gonna be used anymore.. so if i have car seats, ford truck grills, truck tires, engine light etc.. what am i going to do to those parts to make it useful?
