Belgian artist and furniture designer/maker Peter Donders has created two unique pieces of seating out of carbon fiber created by twisting it around a piece of molded foam, and then removing the foam. Both the C-Bench and C-Stone seem light and airy, but they are very sturdy. If you’re interested, you can buy a limited edition piece through Outdoorz Gallery .

This is the coolest thing I have seen in while. British artist Luke Jerram brings “Play Me, I’m Yours” to NYC! This touring project makes sixty pianos available to play all across the city. All in public places and available to anyone!
From now until July 5th and from 9am until 10pm each day. They are located in parks, streets, and plazas. For all of the locations of the pianos and to upload pictures of yourself enjoying them check out their site here. It’s as fun as it sounds!
