The Concept
ReVision tables are a response to the market need for innovative sustainable design. All the designs are recreated from reclaimed junk mail and magazines. Once the pieces are assembled, the surfaces are finished with a no-voc eco-friendly resin which is water resistant and easy to clean with eco-friendly products.
The Innovators
ReVision was the innovation of teen-artists who apprentice at Artists For Humanity. The teens were inspired by their own award-winning “green” AFH EpiCenter, Boston’s only LEED Platinum building which is the highest designation of the US Green Council. The goal was to create a green furniture line. After months of research and development, the teens and their mentors launched ReVision.
The Inspiration
Artists For Humanity’s mission is to bridge economic, racial and social divisions by providing urban youth with the keys to self-sufficiency through paid employment in the arts. Teen artists are mentored in visual arts, market their artistic products and creative services to the public, and are exposed to the benefits of sustainable living through their work in the AFH EpiCenter.
