OUR BOOK HAS LANDED!

Retrouvius Book Sustainable Design

 

It’s official — our book is finally here. Years in the making, deeply personal, and filled to the brim with everything Retrouvius stands for: beauty, reuse, integrity, and salvage finds put to imaginative use.

The team received the very first copy in the studio this week. There were (happy) tears, an excitement in both the studio and the shop – we couldn’t be prouder.

This isn’t just a book about interiors. It’s a book about values. About how the things we rescue, the things we choose to keep, and the things we repurpose — all tell stories. It shows what’s possible with an attitude focused on sustainability and the pure joy of making old things new again.

Inside, you’ll find a tour through some of our most-loved projects, our approach to design, salvage philosophy and the inventive ways in which design has informed the ways we have reused.

Whether you’re a long-time client, a fellow obsessive, or simply curious about how to make design more soulful and sustainable, our hope is you feel inspired and confident in the knowledge that design can make our planet a better place.

Published by Rizzoli, it’s available to buy here. We would be honoured to share this with you.
