"Upcycling and Sustainable Design" ft. Lynne Lambourne

Lizzie interviews Lynne Lambourne, 2019’s Grand Designs Live Interior Designer of the year. Lynne identifies as a thrifty "warrior on waste” and sets out to show adults and kids alike how to live more sustainably in homes that look fantastic and don’t cost the earth. Lynne won the Channel 4 show with a sustainability and upcycling theme of using only second-hand or upcycled furniture pieces. No stranger to the world of television interior design, Lynne has been featured on Gok Wan’s show ‘Fill Your House for Free’, the BBC’s 'Great Interior Design Challenge' and has worked on styling room sets for the Ideal Home Show. Lizzie and Lynne discuss a wide range of topics from upcycling trends and where to start on your own upcycling journey; the definitions of second-hand, vintage and antique; how thrift shops have become trendy and what that’s doing to the market place; and Lynne gives her top tips to help change our mindsets and behaviours to ultimately live more sustainably. https://www.lynnelambourne https://instagram.com/lynnelambourne
