Kirei:Mod Coffee Table by Iannone Design.
Green Design Girl first featured Iannone Design back in January of 2008, when their eco.chic Graphic Armoire and Signature 2.0 Console caught my eye.
Also bearing a clean-lined modern aesthetic, the striking Kirei:Mod Coffee Table is similarly constructed using the eco.smart kirei, which is made from reclaimed stalks of the renewable sorghum plant by bonding them together with a non-toxic adhesive. The interior structure of the coffee table is made from FSC-certified plywood, cut from normally discarded scraps. Its retro shaped legs are made from stainless steel and can be seen in a profile diagram here.
The Kirei:Mod is one of those pieces that inspires me because it proves that green design can be sleek, modern and drop dead gorgeous — and fortunately, we’re seeing more of it today.
