Natural Interiors® Designers' Forum spotlights new look for old furniture from Sterling Interiors
By now, everyone has seen artwork and other creations made from trash, or worn out objects that were about to become trash. But when was the last time you saw one and seriously considered it useful?
Can’t remember? Then it’s time to take a closer look at a growing interior design trend called “upcycling.” It’s not quite the same thing as “restoring,” or “refinishing” as upcycling usually gives a worn out piece of furniture a different look than it had before, along with a whole new, useful life.
While this helps the planet by reducing waste, concern for the planet is not the top force driving demand for upcycled products.
