Christoph Kurzmann

Upscaling upcycling Adaptive re-use

Christoph Kurzmann is an accomplished young furniture craftsman, born and bred in Austria. He has rescued the contents of 250 student bedrooms which were otherwise destined for the tip. “I believe in repair and repurpose, and I saw this waste as inspiration – and a massive resource.” It has yielded an identical kit of parts, making upcycling possible on a large scale. Stools are precision made from curved wooden bed frames, with eight traditional timber joints. Storage towers are built from old drawers. All furniture is hand-sanded and waxed to a silky smooth finish.
