This John Carter Road Tested Chair ($3700) is created from two working New York City Don't Walk/Walk signs, comes with a remote control to turn them on and off, and plugs into a standard AC outlet. It can come as is, with all the grit that New York City is known for, or with a fresh coat of taxi-cab yellow paint. The seating surfaces have been reglazed with thick resin and cushioned with felt suspension.

I am a big fan of products that creatively recycle everyday objects, but I just can't decide how I feel about the Road Tested Chair ($3,700) designed by John Carter.
Made from authentic "Don't Walk" signs salvaged from New York, the light-up chair actually works, using a remote control. But while I love the idea, the energy-sucking furniture seems better suited to a museum.
