Peter Abrams (born December 19, 1961 in New York City) is a recycled artist specializing in elevator cable reclamation for "Firebowls". He currently works in Trenton, New Jersey at his workshop on 220 Allen Street where he creates functional artwork, furnishings, and figures from wire rope. He is founder and proprietor of the Trenton Atelier - a grass-roots, volunteer community artists organization. Current projects include Firebowls, Be Home Now, Firedirt, and other functional recycled art and products. ==The B Home== The B Home is a sculpture designed by artists Peter Abrams and Graham Apgar. An example of biomimicry, the B Home derives inspiration from the key building block of a beehive, efficiently enclosing space with a hexagonal lattice. A single unit of the home is located at the D&R Greenway just south of the Johnson Education Center. Separate units at the greenway, which will function as outdoor gazebos are being built using sustainable, upcycled materials such as shipping pallets, bamboo, and adobe. As the hexagon-shaped modules of the B Home are stacked, they begin to resemble the honeycomb of a beehive, and could potentially be used shelters, perhaps in disaster relief situations. As bees know, the hexagonal design allows for more enclosed space using less materials energy. Together, the units would form strong, interconnected structures. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Abrams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
