Pineapple Paper Furniture by Jacob Resneck
Establishment (an interior design outpost in Manhattan) recently tipped us to Pineapple Paper Furniture, a new line of benches and chairs made from compressed pineapple fibers.
We like the Doonya Chair (pictured above right, $1,900) as well as the Nut Bench (pictured after the jump, $2,900). They hadn't been added to the website last time we checked, but you can email Establishment directly: info [at] establishmentnyc [dot] com for more information.
Or if you're in Manhattan, stop by the store on Gansevoort Street. See more images after the jump.

Nut Bench, $2,900

Baco Stool, $650 each

Baco Chair, $420

The Missouri-based architect built her first prototype in 2000 as a Chilean vacation home for her parents, and in the last few years has seen a boom in construction of her efficient, inexpensive kit homes,...
