It seems an inflated bicycle tyre can serve for multiple purposes and will prove effective, only once you think of marrying innovation and recycling. Designer Graham Bergh is just doing this. After getting a flat tire on the way to recycling job, he took the deflated inner tube and used it to hang speakers on his living room wall. Then there is no looking back. And the result was Resource Revival in 1991, by Graham.
Resource Revival effectively recycles thousands of pounds of discarded parts a year, all producing fabulous designs. One of its best selling pieces is the Hybrid Wall clock. The clock is made from used bicycle chain rings. These are brilliantly used in combination with mirror-like disks taken from discarded computers. At 7′ in diameter, the clock makes an interesting timepiece. The economic part of this lies in the concept that it runs on a single AA battery. You can purchase this unique piece of innovation for $29.95 from Resource Revival.
