REthinkthings thinks again...



We like to think we are a noteworthy brand who cares about the environment, clients, suppliers and end users. That’s why they have developed lighting that uses no energy, glasses that can be set down outdoors, transforming versatile bags, canes that help you to get up, and a range of other home accessories that are fun to use and make people smile.

We have been at it again, out and about Rethinking-things! This time we couldn't resist adding products to our collection within the theme of outdoor meets indoor. With our need for space increasing and our homes getting smaller in size, storage is a must have and for those without garden areas we are offering some new quirky items that bring outdoor utilitarian objects into the home to help us stay organised. New to REthinkthings is 'Hive'. Monika Piatkowski, the creative brains behind the brand has a very intelligent way of expressing these ideals of  reappropriation, finding alternative uses for everyday forms and so we were delighted when she said she wanted to partner with us.


Hives ‘Pail’ storage bucket (above) is made from 100% felt and comes in a choice of colours, turquoise,  red and grey. The harvest hanger (above right) utilises the common garden rakes defining features and gives them a new clever purpose within the home, these hangers are available in a choice of eight colours, blue, green, pink, yellow, red, white, black and beige. To the right these unique ‘Twig’ wall hangers can create a forest feature in an underused space and keep all your everyday essentials organised and accessible.


Find breakfast a bit of a mental battle in the morning? Yes, thats what we thought. Takae Mizutani has picked up on this too and highlighted how the classic morning favourite of egg and soilders have issues of their own. "The eggs are always perched and ready for action in their cups and the poor soldiers just have to lay on the plate already defeated". Another creative mind new to REthinkthings, we adore this egg and solider set consisting of a royal horse and castle. Be nice to your soldiers! 



Steven Almond's designs also got us smiling, with his charismatic trinkets. New to REthinkthings are "Cliff" and "Launch" set to provide any  homeowner with a subtle smirk. 'Cliff' hanger can be scattered across walls in hallways / kids bedrooms, even in the office and makes for an eye-catching feature. The more you use, the cuter Cliff gets, we have ten of these little guys hanging around in our office holding our coats, what a guy! 


Another one of Steven's quirky little items we love is 'Launch', we liked how Steven took a mundane overlooked item such as the candleholder and with a little thought and a touch of humour he has given it a new lease of life. Just pop in a candle and watch them 'launch' life into your living space!


These new items strengthen our mission to provide people with emotive products that engage the brain and are a pleasure to use. 

Always thinking.....
