OUR STORY

Everything we do at reCreate Design Company is focused on one (really important!) thing – extending the lifespan of existing materials. How we go about that is as diverse as the very materials that we salvage, rescue, and redesign. Whether we’re installing our signature style of reused and repurposed interior design in an office environment, or we’re finding new users for furniture inventory that is no longer needed by companies, we’re contributing to a sustainable profile and lifestyle for our clients, our community, and ourselves. Have a look around our website and learn more about how reCreate Design Company projects and recycled designs unite the “first life” history that comes embedded in reused materials with the “second life” story-in-the-making for our clients.

GET IT DONE

INTERIORS

Today’s companies want sustainable interiors that reflect the unique personality of their business, at the same time enhancing their CSR profile. Our reclaimed furnishings and spaces create stories and experiences.

INVENTORY RELOCATION

We deliver sustainable and economical solutions for surplus office furniture and supplies via our network match program with resellers, schools and non-profit organizations.

BESPOKE

Most spaces are crying out for something unique, something that makes us stop in our tracks and say “WOW!”. We create one-of-a-kind pieces from reclaimed and repurposed materials that guarantee a double take!

WORKSHOPS

Company teambuilding and school group workshops are designed to explore new ways of thinking as participants find, build and create new form and function from reclaimed materials.

Why We Upcycled A Designer Sofa
, , , ,

Sometimes we get lucky...REALLY lucky! Like that time we picked up a Bolia sofa for a steal.     One of our recent interior design projects at the University of Gothenburg required a durable-but-stylish sofa, secondhand of course to fit with our mission to create interiors using 100% reused, upcycled and repurposed design.

We constantly laugh at ourselves when we realize the strange things we carry around in our bags. Today..was one of those days. (Svensk översättning längst ned) Admittedly, Mike's purse is more like a satchel.
