Hanna Linnéa Ryd: no time to waste

Hanna Linnéa Ryd, an upcycling fashion designer, is the creative mind behind HURRA PANGPANG. Her passion lies in transforming forgotten items into wearable treasures and promoting a sustainable lifestyle.

Hanna believes that "nothing is waste until we waste it", and her creations reflect this philosophy. She upcycles second-hand, worn-out items into furniture, cushions, and other accessories. She aims to inspire others to think twice about their possessions before discarding them.

The monochrome pink queendom

The room is a stunning example of the creativity and ingenuity. It is filled with personality, charm, and limitless potential for repurposing, creating a sanctuary that's both beautiful and functional. It serves as a bedroom, workspace, cabinet of curiosities, upcycling station, walk-in closet, and photo studio, catering to a range of needs and activities. The colour scheme is an eye-catching monochrome pink that adds a unique touch to the space. The items in this space are either second-hand, upcycled, or DIY, showing the value of repurposing and reusing rather than throwing away. Each item has a unique story to tell, and none are disposed of without careful consideration.

The room of sustainability 

A fresh coat of paint can bring an old piece of furniture back to life, giving it a new identity that suits your style and personality. Similarly, children's toys can be repurposed into quirky and comfortable pillows, adding a touch of whimsy to any room.

But the key to successful upcycling is a well-organised area for your projects, allowing you to better utilise the space and equipment at your disposal. For example, a loft bed like the STORÅ can be used to maximise floor space, creating a work or study area underneath. The SKÅDIS pegboard is perfect for keeping all your tools and equipment organised, while a large, flexible work surface can accommodate a variety of different activities and tasks.

The KNARDRUP room, which is divided into two parts - a soft living area with a rug, and a hard-working area with a vinyl finish. The space underneath the bed can be used as a walk-in closet, providing even more storage and organisation options. The IVAR is made from solid wood, which can easily be repainted.
