Tejo Remy Chest of Drawers

Filed under: Decor, Art

I am not quite sure what to make of this unusual chest of drawers. Is it art? Is it functional furniture? Maybe it is both. Tejo Remy designed the 'You Can't Lay Down Your Memory' chest for Droog Design in 1991 and it has since become part of the permanent design collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The chest is made from drawers collected from the street and is a unique work of art. Unique, it is. Because the materials are found drawers, each chest is different and may include combinations of wood, metal, paper, plastic, burlap, contact paper, and paint. It sells for $28,000.
