Morbid, maybe, but sustainable as well: this combination wooden bookcase-and-coffin idea takes the concept of eco-friendly “cradle-to-grave” and applies it with dark literal humor.
If you think about it, this is not just a green way to go but a practical (if strange) strategy to spare your loved ones additional expenses after you die. Instead of sorting out which coffin to buy they can simply take apart your shelf system and construct it out of already-purchased parts.
While it is constructed of wood and designed by William Warren to weather and age with you, it might be a good idea to take care of this bookcase while you are still around since it will be traveling with you underground.
