Book synopsis

30 brilliantly inspiring and totally achievable design projects - with easy to follow step by step instructions to transform the dull, the discarded and the down-at-heel into something really out of the ordinary. Ordinary materials. Ordinary objects. They are all around us. The humble roll of Sellotape. The dull lump of concrete. The drab supermarket sneakers. The dreary kitchen chair that you're tempted to throw on a skip...Designer and artist Pascal Anson delights in the ordinary: but through his eyes the most ordinary of objects and materials can become, quite simply, extraordinary. Pascal shows us how our everyday items, junk and interiors can be literally reinvented. How to create a splendid chandelier with just a couple of rolls of Sellotape. Cast a stunning plant pot worthy of any designer homeware store using a cheap bag of concrete mix and a recycled plastic food tub. And how to build a child's fantasy treehouse with a roll of routine cling film. There are ideas for projects for everyone - from the four-minute makeover skinny jeans, to repairing and reinventing worn trainers, to bigger projects such as the wood-clad Honda Civic and the stylish hairy chair. "A resourceful attitude and way of working is key to me but so is fun, playfulness and sometimes magic". (Pascal Anson).
