I’ve just come across the Recreate studio, a fabulously quirky home interiors company based in Cape Town, South Africa.  Owner Katie Thompson collects and reuses pieces of diguarded junk to recreate a unique, recycled range of furniture, lighting and interior accessories, each piece infused with its own previous character but with a new function.  The results are fresh, innovative and inspiring.  And Katie ships worldwide!

” I love creating functional art from discarded non functional junk “

 This set of old, broken weighing scales have been reborn as a clock- I love the colours and pattern

These colourful milk pails make fabulous retro stools!

This old solid wood rack was previously used in a sorting office for mail.
