Ryan McElhinney, aged 35 years is an amazing designer, recycling is more current than ever and remains at the heart of McElhinney’s work. Fusing old and new, he transforms found objects to continuously surprising effect. A world away from the dated image of how recycled should look, his sexy, urban projects and hand-made one-of-a-kind sculptures have enjoyed the attention of design aficionados from Philippe Starck to Kanye West, who recently enthused about the designer’s subversively glamorous gold-painted Toy Lamps. They are simply stunning and amazing.

 

 
Each sculpture is one of a kind and hand crafted at his London Studio. These recycled Toys which are bonded together and then coated in a High Gloss polyurethane laquer transforms into amazing lamps.
