Today's kids want furniture that is funky and unique, not Mom and Dad's stodgy old antiques. And while they don't have the budget to buy trendy pieces, they do have something else: a creative, do-it-yourself attitude. Turf will inspire 20- and 30-somethings to create one-of-a-kind works of art that are functional as well. Featuring 25 projects, designer Anthony Garay shows how to:

• Build contemporary chairs, tables, and accessories, along with a nightstand, an armoire, and a bed frame, using only a limited number of tools
• Use wood with unconventional materials, including pipe, trashcans, crates, acrylics, and recycled items
• Transform ready-made items into something new with easy-to-grasp skills

Illustrated with a mixture of unique hand-drawn illustrations and photos, Turf makes a hip coffee table book as well as practical furniture manual.
