Redesign, Refurbish, Recreate!

The new 3 R's:

Redesign, Refurbish, Recreate!

Thinking out of the box in creating refreshed spaces can be a bit challenging these days, especially if your budget is a little bit tighter. If you think about it, there is an abundance of possibilities if you are open to being a little more eclectic and ok with a little wear or history on the items... and yes this is a style!

This craze is basically creating new spaces out of old things. That’s right, flea market finds and consignment store searches! This eclectic or nostalgic style can encourage a true uniqueness in the space and depending on the piece, say an antique, can really encourage conversation. There is one caveat though, its all in how the pieces are put together that pulls it off.

This can work for both residential and commercial spaces. I have seen stunning tables and chairs that are perfect for a small conference table and leather desk chairs that some couldn’t afford brand new, but for pennies on the dollar, they are great finds.

Look for an additional article that will have pictures
of our latest project in McCall using the 3 R's!
Here are a few books we love with more information on this style:
