The term ‘dumpster diving’ took on a whole new meaning, after reading the story of designer Tammy Roy, who proves one man’s trash is another woman’s treasure. Her Chicago based design studio seemingly stems from her background as a graphic artist — but mostly just screams ‘whateva – this sh*t’s cool‘ to me. Roy literally peruses scrap yards & junk piles to weld & meld these pieces into sophisticated art that puts the perfect level of heavy, heavy metal into whichever aesthetic you’re workin’ with.
