Take one neat graphic design print, add it to a clothes hanger ingeniously made from compressed recycled newspaper - did we really have metal ones when I was a kid? - and you get the Zilka. It's made by Ryan Frank, a London designer who's also responsible for such rad recycled designs as the Hackney Shelf (made from blocks of graffiti found in Hackney) and the Inkuku chair (old plastic carrier bags and recycled aluminium). I've emailed Ryan for a pricing on the trio. 14/06/06 update: the hangers are, sadly sold-out. The shelves are £2100 a pop and the chair's currently at prototype stage - I'll keep you posted if that changes...
