Furniture has evolved in the recent past from being mere necessities to being works of art. The designs have gone from the staid and boring to futuristic and unique. Artists with a passion for modern styles and designs with a message, for added effect, are at the forefront today with many interested in their designs.
The Mangrove chair is one such furniture piece that is unique in its idea and design. Conceived by Adam Krehbiel for Verasari Designs, the Mangrove chair is an attempt by the designer to bring into focus the danger of the disappearing mangrove eco system and its effect on the entire planet.
Ninety percent of the materials used to build the Mangrove chair are recycled products that have been put together to resemble a small part of the mangrove. This sculpture like chair has been made using yellow pine, steel pipe, resin and sand. These materials have been put together to give a very startling and striking visual effect while also championing the cause of the fast vanishing delicate mangroves.
The USP of this chair is that it fits easily into its surrounding décor, be it in a room or on the patio or in the garden. The chair does exactly what the designer intended – showcase the natural beauty of the mangroves and make people aware of the impending danger of fading eco systems.
This one-of-a-kind chair is one in a series of sculptured furniture by Verasari Designs and it is an exclusive piece which is available especially for those who want to make a style statement while supporting an important cause which involves the planet. The proceeds from the sale of this chair have been pledged towards organizations spearheading the cause of earth conservation and awareness of the global eco system.

The ferris wheel always tends to draw a whole lot of attention no matter what! Imagine taking pictures from your camera when you are way up there, and if you are in a ferris that’s in Vegas then the pictures are worth millions.
You don’t need to gamble the night away just so you can enjoy the world’s most preferred gambling destination Las Vegas. You can enjoy Vegas as it is, without having to spend the night behind a fortune wheel, or playing black jack. Instead sit on a wheel enjoy the feeling of being in the air, way above the rest and be as close to the tallest lights there is.
Las Vegas is soon to have something that will entice people who don’t enjoy gambling much as most do. Don’t be surprised even if gamblers leave their tables just so they get a seat and a priceless view of Vegas. Howard Bulloch of Compass Investments are developers of this huge 500 feet ferris wheel that’s strategically placed on the Las Vegas strip giving people a view that is simply incomparable.
Called the Skyvue Las Vegas Super Wheel, this ferris wheel has around 40 gondolas and will be ready by the year 2013. This particular wheel is part of the “$100 million privately funded project” which will also include a roller coaster apart from 200,000 sq ft of entertainment space, retail and restaurant. This wheel is surely much better than the London Eye, Tokyo’s Odaiba Ferris wheel, Flyer in Singapore and the China’s Great wheel.
The Skyvue Las Vegas will be a great combination of entertainment and hospitality and an attraction that will not just draw in the much needed tourist attention but also take care of their economic loss, create jobs and lots more. The 40 gondolas will be good enough to carry about 25 passengers at one time and can also be rented for private parties where you can also enjoy a few good drinks and food.
