Upcycling ?

We get questioned quite often on the concept of upcycling, we also get a lot of "hmm...upcycling..interesting concept", but the interesting part is they say that after we explain to them what upcycling is and how its so important for us to implement now and then almost immediately i spot them throwing something away (not necessarily in the dustbin, the street works as well)!

so just thought of clearing away this confusion. This 'upcycling' business is not about a list of do's and donts. Its actually about a different perspective and angle of looking at things. These 'things' could be waste or something brand new which someone gifted to you and you dont really like ! All you need to do is tilt your head in a different direction from the side you usually tilt it to and look at that object. I have collected a few examples of the brilliant and stunning work that has stemmed from people looking at objects from a different angle. Get inspired !!

Old shipping containers have been upcycled to make a mall ! The wonders of a powerful imagination !

Ever thought of doing that to an old pair of jeans that you dont want to part with, but its creating storage issues ? Now just be creative and turn it into art !


These are old boats, turned over to create storage sheds ! Brilliant eh ?
