check out this great series of photos I just stumbled across (while looking for something totally unrelated, of course) 
As I understand it, Vancouver artist James Nizam has created this series of in situ assemblages from furniture and other elements found in an old public housing development.   His playful re-arrangements of mundane objects into beautiful compositions remind me of Andy Goldsworthy, and I love his titles- imaginative collective nouns a'la "a murder of crows" and "an Exaltation of Larks".

‘sheaf of pipe’

"lattice of doorknobs"
"stabile of drawers"
"entanglement of chairs"
and on another note, I wouldn't mind nicking a few of those lovely wooden chairs...hmm  ;)
