One of my early foray's into the intersection of interior
design and reclamation was 'Buster's Chaise". This fifties fantasy
began life as possibly the ugliest sofa known to man that I literally found on the sidewalk.

Its
Herculon dressed pine frame was a marvel of bad and disassembling it was an adventure in seeds and stems, but once rendered down to wood and no-sag (or "S") springs, and the wood reconfigured, this one of a kind room changer cost close to nothing.

I was proud of this piece, Its unusual look and storied history started many a conversations, but no one loved it like Buster.
