Upcycling is the process of transforming seemingly low value items
into something new. Today's upcyclists are creating stunning
furniture, lighting and art objects that combine values of superb
craftsmanship and design with ideas of how "waste" can be both
inspiring and informing. While the environmental and financial
benefits of upcycling are readily acknowledged here, these
designers and makers show how the practice can result in pieces
that are as aesthetically exciting as anything created using only
raw materials. Based on the author's popular website,
upcyclist.co.uk, this book extends far beyond the site's contents.
Featuring hundreds of creations from an international collection of
today's most exciting designers, the book is organised by material,
with chapters dedicated to wood, metal, glass and ceramics,
textiles, plastic, paper and mixed media. Reclaimed tree branches
and barn doors are transformed into exquisite pieces of furniture;
bicycle chains into chandeliers; t-shirts into rugs; saris into
upholstery. Filled with an enormous range of materials and objects,
this unique book will inspire any designer or design-conscious
consumer to incorporate upcycling into their creative practice or
interior design projects.
