More furniture made from the Coney Island boardwalk

I previously wrote about Olde Good Things making furniture from ipe wood salvaged from the Coney Island boardwalk.  As mentioned in Gothamist today, Uhuru Design is also making furniture from salvaged wood from the boardwalk.

Check out Uhuru's "Cyclone Lounger," inspired by the Cyclone, the famous wooden roller coaster at Coney Island.  My favorite part of this lounge chair is the stylized metal base, made to look like the wooden truss of the roller coaster:

Uhuru's Coney Island Line of furniture will be launching at the Bklyn Designs 2010 design conference this weekend.
