Statement:
Colin Selig’s work is a synthesis of sculpture and sustainable design. His collection of site amenities, made entirely from scrap propane tanks, are comfortable, durable and eco-friendly. Colin’s aesthetic is modern, abstract and organic, with a sense of whimsy. His compositions range from human scaled, biomorphic sculptures to seating designs which are contemporary riffs on iconic furniture from past eras. The combination of curved seat and backrest provides good lumbar support for a wide range of body sizes.

Green Statement/Products:
Colin Selig’s products contain 99% post consumer REUSED content, making them among the greenest site furnishings available in the market. The manufacturing process begins with regionally sourced scrap propane tanks which are an abundant material due to strict regulations limiting their service life. Next the tanks are carefully dissected and the parts reassembled, with no additional reshaping or reforming of the material. Repurposing, or upcycling, has a dramatically smaller carbon footprint than recycling because the source material is reused in it’s current form.
