Retrouvius Architectural Reclamation & Design, founded in 1993 by Adam Hills and Maria Speake, is a London-based company dedicated to the reclamation and reuse of architectural materials. Their mission centers on the belief that well-crafted materials and objects possess intrinsic value, advocating for their preservation and intelligent repurposing. This philosophy underscores their commitment to sustainability and ecological design practices. The company operates through two complementary divisions: a reclamation warehouse and a design studio. The warehouse offers a curated selection of salvaged items, including tropical hardwoods, architectural elements, vintage lighting, and textiles. This ever-evolving inventory caters to architects, designers, and the general public, providing unique materials for various projects. Led by Maria Speake, the design studio specializes in incorporating reclaimed materials into sophisticated and elegant interiors. Their work spans residential and commercial projects, where they creatively apply salvaged elements to craft distinctive spaces. This approach not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also promotes sustainable design by extending the lifecycle of materials. Retrouvius has garnered recognition for its innovative design solutions and commitment to reuse. Their projects demonstrate how reclaimed materials can be seamlessly integrated into contemporary design, challenging conventional notions of newness and encouraging a more sustainable approach to architecture and interiors. Through their reclamation and design work, Retrouvius continues to influence the architectural and design landscape in the UK, promoting the value of reuse and the potential of salvaged materials in creating timeless and environmentally responsible spaces.
