Studio-Re-Creation “aims to preserve and re-shape your personal belongings and memories towards your design of desire.” It can be “your first car or your Grandma’s coffeetable and chair may be alternated into a new function that fits your contemporary interior demands.  Your materials and memories need not be thrown away or hidden any longer!” This is a great idea! If you have a favorite item that no longer has use, Studio Re-Creation can turn it into a sculpture.
