Arbor Tandem Loveseat by Peter Danko @ Vivavi. I love the clean and architectural lines of this eco.smart loveseat by Peter Danko. I think it’s brilliant that they were able to create something so beautiful using post industrial automotive seatbelts. These are seatbelts that have been crash-tested, unused by consumers, and end-of-the line — which means that they’d otherwise end up in a landfill if not repurposed in some clever way. Several colour options are available [see next photo].

Colour options for the Arbor Tandem Loveseat by Peter Danko @ Vivavi. You can have some serious fun choosing from this wide array of shades. The top two rows are samples of the seatbelt webbing, while the rest are non-toxic finishes that are used to stain the solid maple wood frame. An example of the loveseat featuring the taupe webbing can be seen here.

Seat Belt Pillow @ Branch Home. I’m not suggesting that you really need to get matching seatbelt pillows to go with that knockout of a seatbelt loveseat from Vivavi [sometimes a contrast of materials is best]… but in case you’re so inclined, or would like to add some automotive chic to the rest of your setting, Branch has got them ready and waiting for you — and in some gloriously crisp shades that will really pop against any background.

Seat Belt Pillow @ Branch Home. I don’t know about you, but the red one really revs me. I should also mention that they’ve skillfully woven these pillows to give a deceptively simple appearance, totally seamless and zipper-free. No doubt appealing to all of you hardcore minimalists out there. And maybe a few race car lovahs, too.
