Recycled Plastic

Following a recent trip to Bali, I couldn’t get over how much plastic rubbish there was in the sea, even though I was diving in a protected National Park.

The Lost & Found Team are always keen to support and promote environmental projects. Industrial designer Carter Zufelt has developed a process that turns old plastic bags into objects that he calls Müll, which are not only beautiful, they’re useful.

Instead of letting plastic bags sit in a landfill where they can take up to 1000 years to breakdown, Zufelt decided to experiment to see if he could make something out of the discarded material. The result is a colorful marble-like material that he’s turned into desktop organizers, cubes, a stool, and a table.

Hannah Turner Ceramics

Lost & Found Creative have been working for Hannah Turner from the start (over 7 years) and we must say it has been an absolute pleasure. We’ve witnessed the company grow and go from strength to strength and this is credit to Hannah and her vision. It is now not uncommon to walk into a tableware or art store in the South West and London and be faced with her beautiful range of products. Having just received a fresh batch of product images back from the photographer, we have just taken 10 mins to reflect over a cuppa on how far things have come from the days of her products being made in a small studio/back room in Bristol and being sold in 2 retail outlets locally. With a new website on the horizon, products being sold and shipped internationally and new products and ranges in development, she shows no sign of slowing up. Full steam ahead!

Death to Stock

We appreciate that stock imagery has its place but wherever possible we try to encourage our clients to commission images unique to them and their brand, not only will they be left with images that no one else has, they will also have complete freedom to apply them how and when they want to. It is an opportunity to expand the brand too, creating a unique style.

Then Death to Stock came along. We consider this to be a great compromise. Perhaps not suited to all companies and brands, this idea was born out of the need for fresh imagery, less staged and formulaic, but at a reasonable price. It also allow amateur photographers to share their work and receive a mall return, rather than letting beautiful images sit on a hard drive or in Dropbox.
