Wheelbarrow Chair by Karl Sanford

Who says you have to employ a PR agent to get your work out there? Certainly not Karl Sanford whose wife submitted his Wheelbarrow Chair to us. Her pitch caught my eye and the clever design backed it up so we just had to post about it. I’ve seen chairs made from wheelbarrows before but none with the leg detail this one has.

The wood legs are held together with crossed steel bracing, which really modernizes the overall look of the chair. I also like that the nuts and bolts are all exposed.
