I love the way she talks abt the need to get "on the same boat", unlike others, theres no stress or "violence" to convince people-their art is convincing and speaks for itself.
I am obsessed with the chairs with the exaggerated pill-shaped cushions; and the wardrobe where the doors unwrap to create a privacy a screen. So lovely and fun and creative! I'm so grateful for creatives like this encouraging their fellow designers to challenge themselves through the use of repurposed materials, we need a greater culture of reuse and repurposing.
I agree 100% with the idea. I live in Germany at the moment. Once a year, people can put all the furniture and household waste on the pavement outside ones house, for a truck to pick up the 'waste'. This happens once a year. The truck crushes the furniture.😢 I was so upset to see so much great stuff being destroyed. I come from a poor country so it seems like such a waste. I started collecting things from my neighbourhood to fix and repurpose. My German partner who sadly passed away this year thought I was just bringing home junk. I am creative, can see potential and what something could be. One day, on a waste collection day it was raining. I walked around my neighborhood and started picking up things that were thrown out. I carried a table and other stuff home in the rain lol. It was a job. The table had some rotten legs which just needed a few pieces of wood from the hardware store to fix a fold out garden table. Those small slatted cafe garden tables that are square and fold up. I high pressured washed the grime off the table. Let it dry. sanded it, painted, and replaced the broken pieces with no prior experience of woodwork. I still have it. It looks great and can be used. In Germany, people can also put a box of stuff for free outside. I have taken beautiful things for free to reuse. So yes, we all need to change how we think. To save our planet from waste going to the landfill, so much can be upcycled, repurposed, reused, etc. We should have community centers where everyone can bring things. Machines everyone can share. People can help eachother to learn skills in workshops. The elderly also need to get out and do something to keep busy instead of sitting in a lonely room in an old age home which is depressing. So much can be done for people of all ages. When I went to high school the girls had to do home economics. Cooking, sewing, etc. The boys did woodwork. So we, as girls never learned how to use tools. The education systems need to change to educate everyone equally and include classes like Permaculture. How to save seeds, grow food, learn about systems that are easy and sustainable. Everyone can grow somethingon a balcony, on windowsills, in pots, recycled containers, etc. We can grow foid in car parks, parks, library car parks, gardens should include food and not just plants. So much can be done. 👍
I do the same thing. I pick up old furniture and wood that has been discarded from the street to repurpose it. People throw away things that have a lot life left in them. I even picked up a large monitor for my computer that worked perfectly fine. Someone just threw it out with the trash, and it would have been thrown away had I not picked it up from the street. I really like your ideas. I hope that the world will become more like this. If we take care of everything that we own by repairing, repurposing, reusing, etc., we take care of ourselves and each other as well.
I LOVE this series, from both a filmmaking and consumer perspective. The storytelling is simple, but engaging and tells a full-circle story. Seeing how "waste" can be turned into something as unique as these furniture pieces and art pieces really makes me wonder what I can do with my "waste". Truly inspiring. Can't wait for the next episode!
@ziraprod6090 there's no need to rain on someone else's parade, is there? Time spent putting up negative comments could be time spent doing something positive in your own life. Enjoy your day
@@pipfox7834do shut up they have an opinion and as the uk is freedom of speech they can say what they want who are you to but your nose in and tell someone what type of comments they are allowed to say ..
What a fantastic work and vision! This is all about vision, isn't?! Seeing an eye, a tail, a chair, raw material instead of unwanted waste. Seeing a future where waste can be seen as a source for something new . Congratulations!!!! Please show us more of your work.
I'm always looking at waste in this way. When I'm cycling paste a skip, or a dumpster, I always stop and have a look. I keep some bungee cords on my bike, just in case I find something I can use. Just some input, as a paper based productivity guy, I always cut up scrap paper, junk mail, etc., and use it for writing.
I hope to be having so much fun at this age as these power couple design team! That little workshop/studio is awesome. Love how they addressed that recycled materials are often more costly than, raw new and proven materials. Most folks don’t know that though. The pallet up cycling is nothing new, but I’ve never seen it addressed so thoughtfully as these two have. Very cool and loving this new series on product design
Please mind the pallet upcycling projects were on display 2006, almost 20 years ago from now. Even then I'm positive there were other designs being made from discarded pallets. Dutch designers have a brief history with sustainable design. Piet Hein Eek's work is a good start for diving into Dutch design.
I love this new series. It's a dialogue that needs to be jumpstarted - using design to breathe new life into old, discarded material. I'd like to think it's aligned to your name - as no effort to recycle/upcycle is Never Too Small indeed. Bravo!
Absolutely loved this episode of never too small, as a owner of an apparel brand that is personate about recycling and reused materials , and also reducing waste in our society, this was really to great watch because it inspired me to do even better
I do my art with recycled items as much possible. I live in a home full of peoples discarded furniture that I have rebuilt. I understand the special unique joy in the finished piece that was someone else’s trash. My art studio inside was built from pieces of wood people just threw out on the curbs for trash pick up! Love the video … and no surprise the animals!
wow she’s right when she said their studio is where they play. I can see it through the design, so fresh and playful but still functional. I wanna work with them or do smt like this but more in timeless design . So glad she mentioned that recycled material are way more expensive than most use materials ( i would like to know more ab this! why and the solution ideas.)
Which one of those were functional besides chairs and chairs being turned into… different chairs? The animals were cute, but pallet wood is scruffy (and sometimes still treated with pesticides) so not really usable. The reveal cabinet was wasting storage space. Nice for a gallery, impractical for normal use. The privacy screen wardrobe is a fancy idea but would you really use it on a daily basis?
@@wilmaknickersfit I guess selling product designs and designing interiors for clients. Consulting might also be part of it. These animals and pallet chairs are side projects, not primary source of income.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey, it was inspiring and a joy to watch. I share your ethos on utilising precious resources and feeding into the circular economy with my small business so it was lovely to find you. Your story has fuelled my dreams...🙏💫
That is absolutely amazing! Such an inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing this!❤❤❤ The more people thinking like this - the more we can all see that we're a community of Earth and we are not alone🙌
This is such an important, fun, thoughtful series about sustainability…….I love it so much. Loving the playful and thought processes …… lovely sustainable solutions couple here. Every word was a gem in a sea of glass. Beautifully crafted, shot film too.
Amazing!! Amazinly beautiful and a demonstration of how far and long we go when we put mind and effort at service of principles! I will surely multiply and share the video and inniciative!!
They are so skilled. They are fascinating. Great designs. They both dress in quite unusual fashion. I keep thinking she wears pajamas as day wear. They are delightful.
I find in their rougher works, those not in design intended for someone else, a similarity with Tom Sachs' art. It is fun to play with unfinished looks, exposed materials or construction steps Love this new series ! Objects and furniture can be beautiful even when they are not slick, shiny, smooth, like coming out of a factory !
I really love the sensibility and the serenity you transmit with your work. Thanks you for sharing this ideal. Congratulations for the vídeo and mainly for your inspiring work.
This is exactly what I'm doing! I'm glad the idea of waste as a valuable, cheap and abundant resource is popping up everywhere. It's so inspiring to see other's interpretations of materials as well!
Growing up in Glasgow, Scotland my dad and a few of our neighbours utilized discarded materials to make furniture and architectural interior decors for our homes. My oldest son in NY finds amazing pieces on the sidewalks and repurposes them to furnish his home.
Wonderful! And am I understanding right that these two probably started the craze of pallet furniture? I loved seeing how they interacted with each other too, with so much love and tenderness.
I truly believe we mostly have everything we need already on the planet created by past generations and that finding a innovative ways to reuse, upcycle and reinterpret these items is the new norm and the future will be a service-based economy instead of manufacturing.
I love this series and it really inspired me to get working on building my own workshop. I picked up some broken garden chairs and now I'm repairing them :) It mentions a 6 episode series but there are only 3 episodes that showcase designers. Are there more to come? Can't wait!!
I love what they do and their aesthetic. Using found or waste materials to make furniture imbues them with a certain aura which is lacking in brand new IKEA/Dunhelm or wherever else people buy stuff from.
Since I watch this episode I cannot stop thinking about it, I do exactly what they do but the difference is that they managed to turn it into a business, I have created endless things from things I found in the streets and usually I have to give it to my friends or I keep the best ones, I would love to go to their workshop and just have a look around and maybe create something with them, that would be pretty cool, I wonder what they would think about the things I have made
Two designers sketching with the right hand and the left hand :,) My heart
What is more lucky than waking up every day and ‘playing’ with the wooden jigsaw all day long?
Best bit is doing it with your love one!
What a life!❤

Aren’t they fabulous!? I have a funny feeling they’re not going to be available in Australia though.

Thank you. Inspiring, lovely ideas.
May I ask if you are talking about Berlin?
I do the same thing. I pick up old furniture and wood that has been discarded from the street to repurpose it. People throw away things that have a lot life left in them.

This is my passion. I am a fabricator in Bermuda where very few persons are DIY people so I get many good finds to re style refurbish
I love the idea “recyling” and I admire creative people like her who give a second, a better life to waste. Earth needs more of those people 👏🏻
Big fukin deal. People have been doing this for centuries... and more creatively and not getting more than a few dollars out of it.

Brilliant! I am a DIYer, and i reuse what I can. What you do is taking upcycling to the next level. Well done!!
These days I find it hard to think of much at all good about my country, but this is definitely one of them. Great people doing awesome things.

What available work that is. Gifted people are that, thank you for showing ❤❤❤
They are cuter the 2 of them, they make a beautiful creative couple! Greetings from Tandil Argentina!

Hey Studio Mama! Love your designs created with overlooked & discarded items! Bravo!!!
Loved the animals!! It is a really unique way to watch the live, also the time frame from the objects, they are really creative, it is amazing
I loved this video and feel so inspired to take a second, third look at what is going in the landfills!! Thank you!!
This is another that I absolutely LOVE and will also follow on Instagram. Just PerrrrrFect!
Thanks for the recycling. I have spent my whole life recycling everything. Grow like that.
Love the wardrobe with privacy screens
I am loving this new series!
That was so fun to watch, I love Studio Mama 🙂
i love that little purple house they made! and those animals are so cute 💜 they are such a cool couple, too!

Love this, they do wonderful work. Thank you❤
So far this is definitely the best content on this channel
We want more episodes like this ❤️
We've got more coming for you!
Thanks so much for this series, it’s absolutely hopeful and builds my own passion toward engaging in sustainable practices!
Cree Summer is a straight bad gyal. So happy I watched/listened to this. Large up Freddie forever!
They are so skilled. They are fascinating. Great designs. They both dress in quite unusual fashion. I keep thinking she wears pajamas as day wear. They are delightful.
The beautiful shelving units with yellow trim and the fabricated terrazzo-like backsplash accents in the upcycled kitchen design were stunning.
I love these designers and their creativity. It's inspirational.
I find in their rougher works, those not in design intended for someone else, a similarity with Tom Sachs' art. It is fun to play with unfinished looks, exposed materials or construction steps

really enjoyed this episode, I have an old chair lying in my storage room, can't want to see what I can do with it to give it a new sense on life
This is exactly what I'm doing! I'm glad the idea of waste as a valuable, cheap and abundant resource is popping up everywhere. It's so inspiring to see other's interpretations of materials as well!
as a design product student , i am truly inspired❤️ thank you thank you !!! pls keep doing this series
Super fun to watch. Thanks so much for making.
that’s wonderful, and in interaction with those materials, having to use what’s there, creativity flows!
Inspiring recycling
You are a worthy person in this world

So inspiring ! I Love this series.
Totally inspired ! such a relevant conversation to be had between todays designers and the consumers alike.
Very interesting. I constantly see pallets cast aside and think what a waste…thank you
Wonderful! And am I understanding right that these two probably started the craze of pallet furniture? I loved seeing how they interacted with each other too, with so much love and tenderness.
I am so inspired - there is so much to think about and do - a way forward, thank you
I utterly love all of this.
Inspired us to recreate. Thanks!❤
Top notch episode!
That test kitchen!! 😍😍
Hello..since i watch ur videos..i love all ur designs coz u used the things that they thrown away and i inspired very much all ye works..
I truly believe we mostly have everything we need already on the planet created by past generations and that finding a innovative ways to reuse, upcycle and reinterpret these items is the new norm and the future will be a service-based economy instead of manufacturing.
Excellent! I like your work and ideas so I'm on board.
Stylish furniture like that can leave a lasting impression on guests and visitors specially when they how how you created it. 😉💯.
Very inspiring! Bravo
You are lovely people, you could acctually save this planet
Beautiful!!!!!! Thank you 😊

I'd buy one of those quirky pallet wood animals
We need the will to make these radical changes…..AMEN!💕🙏
Incredibly inspiring 👏
Hermoso e inspirador capítulo!! 🤩🙌
Enhorabuena!!!,un trabajo❤ magnífico
I speak the very same words. Literally.
I wish I could channel it too, in a global scale.
Stunning people!!
I love this series and it really inspired me to get working on building my own workshop. I picked up some broken garden chairs and now I'm repairing them :) It mentions a 6 episode series but there are only 3 episodes that showcase designers. Are there more to come? Can't wait!!
There are more to come :-)
How inspiring. ❤
Interesting and inspiering!❤🙂
