If you happen to be in Soho and see a guy bending steel using a subway entrance or fire hydrant as leverage it's probably Josh Hader. This is part of Josh’s effort to be eco-conscious from start to finish.
His company
HADAR METAL DESIGNS is “an eco-conscious design group that creates one-of-a-kind custom bikes and environmental installations.”
His tools run on solar energy and everything is made by a sustainable method.
These bikes are functional (solar or gas) and yet still, works of art. The sculptures are works of art that serve as energy gatherers. All are bio-morphic designs, part living and part mechanical. “No one ever crossed the street to look at a Prius” so he makes sure that his eco-designs are decadent, sexy and luxurious. Definitely worth a second look or a walk across the street.
Josh's show, The Evolution Of Steel can be viewed at 285 Lafayette Street until May 27th. See/read more about Josh at http://hardarmetaldesign.com/
