Skateboarding, the act of both riding on and performing tricks using a skateboard, is more and more popular these days. Here on Freshome we presented a few pieces of furniture inspired by the skateboard culture, the skateboard shelf, and a few other pieces of skateboard inspired furniture. Today again inspired by the skateboard culture here is an example of using skateboards at something they are not used to. At the Roarockit Skateboard School in Toronto, they used skateboard decks to build a stairway. The builder says “The aluminium beam is a solid billet of aluminium and the decks were custom made with concave only on one edge. You should see the look on our students faces when they make the treck to the basement.” I’m pretty sure that every skater would love to have something like in his own house .. - Via

We have presented the Skateboard Shelf a few months ago, but today here is something more extreme, every piece of furniture is inspired by a skateboard. Skate Study House (SSH) is an innovative design concept specializing in recreating popular furniture through the vision of a skateboarder. The movement of a skateboarder constantly changes it recreates itself by transcending boundaries and inventing ways to conquer obstacles. It’s constantly about anticipation and adaptation to one’s environment. The same is true for living design. The combination of the two produces a mixture of contemporary lifestyle, art and action sports culture, which is all found in this unique collection. I’m pretty sure that skaters will absolutely love this idea.

Skateboard shelf is a piece of furniture that every skateboard lover would tell your that is awesome. I know that because last month I’ve meet someone who is in love with skateboarding, and he fall in love with this piece of furniture. Perfect for students and kids, it provides substantial storage space for books, display and even skateboard paraphernalia. You can get this skateboard shelf from Wal-Mart for $40. - Via - Luterceiro
