We Make Remake
Petrified
2002
Retrovius, London
Immediately after the second Village Fete, Rainer and Martino started to develop more and more what they now called the We Make Remake project. Within 6 months (Autum–Winter 2002), they have ‘re-made’, exhibited and sold more than 50 unique pieces of furniture.
All the pieces shown on this post are from Petrified, a show organised by Retrouvius, an Architectural Reclamation and Design partnership formed by Adam Hills and Maria Speake, ‘working for the past decade to promote salvage and re-use’.
