About

   
Urnan Upholstery uniquely recycle existing furniture and fabrics, creating high quality one-off pieces.
Andrea & Patrizia, founders of the company, provide a bespoke service to discerning clients who consider the environment as well as design.
Their modus operandi involves restoring cast off furniture by redesigning their shape and then mix and matching up cycled textiles. 

As the founder of UU, Andrea Simonutti & Patrizia Sottile seek to create a more responsible, interesting and aesthetically pleasing environment. "We see upholstery as an art that allows us to interpret the potentials in every day life and we wanted to create a new line of furniture that improves people lives and their relationship with the environment. 
We have always recycled furniture because we are very passionate about old features and objects, reading their history and transforming them. As designer we approach furniture like miniature architectures, able to create space and to identify with the person that owns them” They say. 

Prices range from: £450.00
