Scrap Metal Furniture

Bob Campbell, also known as Stig, as is much a metal sculptor as he is an industrial artist or furniture designer. Using scrap metal parts from cogs and wheels to chains and treads, he crafts recycled one-of pieces and furniture sets that use a creative combination of manufactured pieces and built-from-scratch shape.

He incorporates leather, wood and other industrial materials as needed but metal is always at the core of his work. He has sold his unique metal furniture pieces to all kinds of people through various venues, ranging from high-end luxury retail stores to music festivals, street markets and his own personal private gallery.

His work itself is open to interpretation but his unique style and curious material choices certainly set him up to be seen as existing somewhere between traditional arts and crafts and modern mechanical engineering.

My own words: This kind of interier design is interesting as furniture. If allowed to rust and oxidize perhaps it could create an inhanced quality to the piticular peace. Perhaps certain peaces of the sculpture could be subjected to rust creating and interesting effect? I also like the use of black leather agaist the brushed metal texture and the attention to detail is impressive.
