This colorful chest of drawers summarizes what upc This colorful chest of drawers summarizes what upcycling is all about: creating something new with respect for the origin. Well-executed upcycling is not about erasing the past. It's about strengthening, preserving and refining it. It's also about giving old objects a longer lifespan. That way we can take advantage of existing resources, rather than constantly extracting new ones. ❤️⁠🌎⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Upcycled design and paintwork by @madebyraphael⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ⁠----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view!

If I had not pursued my present line of work, I wo If I had not pursued my present line of work, I would have been a ceramicist. At least that’s what I’d like to think. To me, it's almost like a meditative state just indulging ceramics with my eyes. Just take a look at the work by Tracy Murray of Shut up and Relax Ceramics. It's earthy, it's organic and truly one of a kind. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view!

”These socks were wearing out like crazy and I t ”These socks were wearing out like crazy and I thought: ’Why not cover the whole frail area by playful stitching?’” Maria McCormick of @however_small⁠ explains. So she did, happily changing colors and stitches, one shape leading to the other. The result is as joyful as her work and she thinks of them as her ”happy socks”. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ What do your happy socks look like?! Are they worn out and lovingly mended like Maria's, or of a whole other kind?⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ *Together we make change*⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view!

A splash of color to lighten the mood! These beau A splash of color to lighten the mood! These beautiful baskets are made by Artisan Weavers in Bolgatanga, a remote town in the northeastern region of Ghana. The artisans practice a time-honored weaving technique using elephant grass and their very own rhythm and flow.⁠ ⁠ ”Each design is the handprint or signature of the weaver who has handcrafted the basket,” says Gregory MacCarthy, founder of the Baba Tree Basket Company. ”We celebrate the unique differences in each and every piece.”⁠ ⁠ In the photos, the weaver holding the basket is the weaver who created it.⁠ 😊 ⁠ *Together we make change*⁠ ⁠ ----------------⁠ ⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view!

In the midst of winter, I dream of summer. More sp In the midst of winter, I dream of summer. More specifically, of a garden in bloom. Or a balcony for that matter. I actually use to grow my plants in baskets and barrels, most of them thrift store findings. Of course, there's always room for an addition to the crowd. Like this black basket. It’s made from recycled car tires and that raw rubber would make a great contrast to any plant in bloom. Like a fig tree, perhaps – my favorite on the balcony in June.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view.

This piece of furniture reminds me of a cabinet wi This piece of furniture reminds me of a cabinet with a secret compartment, although the cabinet is a chair and the secret is hidden in the core of the material. The re-used plywood boards are actually printed with a graphic message before the parts are even assembled. This way the chair becomes a carrier of an invisible message. It might be a note of love or a quote by Dostoevsky – it's beautiful either way, right? ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Upcycled design by Italian design collective @studionucleo⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view.

It felt so good to be back at the drawing board, and most of all – I had so much fun! ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ I made this particular illustration for an article on slow fashion on my blog. It illustrates how we can extend the life span of our clothes if we are willing to share with one another. Sharing as in thrifting, swopping, hiring, borrowing, and inheriting clothes.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ *Together we make change*⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ ----------------⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚 Sustainable design / Sustainable fashion / Upcycling / Handicraft / From a designer's point of view!
