Reclaimed Design

Is Good Design

From vintage rugs to well-loved couches, Dwell readers appreciate the enduring quality of good design. So, when it's time to rethink your stuff and reinvent your home, reselling your goods is not only financially rewarding and environmentally responsible but it is a great way to ensure that good design lives to see another day. By using resources like the Los Angeles Times classifieds you can unlock the hidden potential of your formally-favorite, furnishings.

To prove this point, Dwell and the Los Angeles Times are teaming up in the pages of the classifies and at Dwell on Design to demonstrate that reclaimed design is not only an option but a design essential. In the weeks preceding Dwell on Design, our hand-selected designers will scour the classifieds to reclaim everyday items. From these pieces, they will create and showcase a beautifully modern room displayed on the main exhibition floor at Dwell on Design. 

Come to Dwell on Design to see this exclusive display and learn more about designing with reclaimed objects and materials. What's more, if we choose an item that you have placed in the classifieds, you will be automatically entered in our Reclaimed Design Drawing where the winner will take home $1,000. So there is no better time to rethink, reinvent, and reclaim design. Contest details.
