These are a few fine examples of redesigning, or taking a resource which is typically used once and then considered rubbish, and using it to make something new, unique, beautiful and desirable. Essentially eliminating the concept of waste and looking at the materials used in a way that has a broader scope to envision as many life cycles as possible. I hope to see more of this trend emerging and to see more and more people being inspired by this concept.
These recycled rubber band bracelet, made by Christiane Diehl are more interesting, creative and beautiful than I'd previously imagined that rubber bands could be.
Little Fly, a.k.a Jeremy Mays makes gorgeous one-off jewellery pieces out of old books.
These funky bracelets are made by a crew from Brooklyn call Wrecord. They're made from recycled vinyl records that are donated by DJ's, and 10% of the proceeds are donated to local schools. The artists get a fair cut of the deal and everyone is happy.
