So we’ve been given a task in college to create a blog for next Tuesday and we’ve to have at least 6 posts on sustainable or customised or upcycled furniture or interiors!
But I was talking to one of my classmates today and we struggled on how to define the difference between upcycling and customising, I had typed it into Google but I just kept getting businesses from all over the world, so I decided to look at the images it gave me, when I came across this one:
Its from a site called archinspired.org I think this looks mega! Definitely making the most of the space you’ve got to the max. I think this image interested me more inparticular because my mum has been talking about getting something like this installed under our stairs. I really like the idea of having the front faces as mirrors, just because I think it would save having a mirror hanging on the wall meaning there’s more room for paintings and photos, which if your house is anything like ours that’s a huge bonus!
So I think I have figured out the difference between upcycling and customising. Customising for example is like having a circular room and getting bespoke furniture to fit it exactly, where as upcycling is like painting chair legs or printing on a cushion.
