Inspiration
Finding inspiration for upcycling furniture often comes from the ever-changing world around us – from the shifting seasons in nature to the dynamic transformations happening in design trends. As we move towards sustainability, there’s a growing ethos around upcycling, where restoration isn’t just about making something functional again, but about celebrating its potential for beauty. Nature’s organic patterns, the boldness of seasonal colour shifts, and the quiet elegance of weathered materials all offer endless ideas.
For us, it’s about embracing those imperfections and using them to create something bold and new. Colour plays a central role in this process – a splash of vibrant hues, a statement pattern, or a rich, layered finish can completely redefine a piece. Upcycling isn’t just about reusing materials, it’s about creating a bold statement piece that tells a story, reflects individuality, and brings new life to the past. It’s about passion, creativity, and the belief that beauty lies in restoration, whether that’s through a splash of colour or the craftsmanship that gives new purpose to what was once forgotten.
