Each piece of &made ’Lost & Found’ collection has been rescued from the streets and regenerated and produced into furniture. This collection is now available on commission for bespoke order.
This is just a great initiative marrying design and recycling.

Loving this idea of wallpapering furniture.
Bryonie Porter creates these beautiful papered pieces using wallpaper on antique and modern furniture. Using a water-based (environmentally friendly high gloss laquer) she transforms sometimes humdrum pieces into stunning works of art.
Wallpaper used on this pic is by Timorous Beasties, a studio I have already blogged about a while back.
RE-SURFACE produces a range of hand-crafted lighting and interior décor objects with art at heart, and design in mind.
I just like their SOLO re-mix of the classic microphone as light fixture to create a nice atmosphere or to hang above a MetroFarm DJ table for reading disc labels.

Just because I felt the same and I would not have been able to express it in a better way, here’s a very inspiring post from one of my favorite blog ‘Oh Joy’.
‘I’ve been sort of obsessed with giant mylar alphabet balloons for a few months now so when I saw this awesome window display in front of a Louis Vuitton shop yesterday I just about gasped out loud. Love the idea of professing a simple message or sentiment with a shiny and floaty alphabet.’
Tinted Mint offers eco-friendly products and accessories for crafts, DIY and gift packaging. From unique washi (masking) and fabric tapes, stickers, pins and buttons, to translucent wax paper file folders, wood block print wrapping paper and beautiful furoshiki cloth wrappers – DIY customization is simple and resourceful.
I am already thinking of wrapping my Brompton bike and my helmet with these multi-coloured tapes.
Obviously, each order will be wrapped and packaged by hand.
They are not handmade, nor coming in limited editions but surely you can work with these to make your home interior very unique.
