Buubok knitted lamps











Buubok rose from the need of the creativity and freeing imagination. Passion for hand works and designing pretty objects is accompanying us for long time. Our aim is to produce engaging design, to celebrate ingenuity & creativity.
The greatest pleasure lies in the creation of new items so each project is another challenge. All proposed items are treated separately as an exceptional and unique. Most products are single copies, objects which aren't repeating.
A favorite technique of creation is knitting and crocheting. We are constantly looking for different patterns and stitches to develop our creativity and diversity of products. The best patterns are those traditional, proven through the years. We try to give them a new style using in a new context.
Most of our products that’s artful recycling at its best, pieces of ecological design. Many projects are made of recycled material from salvaged fabric. That’s 100% handmade almost from beginning because we do it ourselves, hand-cutting each piece of textile. Buubok always thinking of clever ways to take something useless and give it new life. Reusing of materials give us a real pleasure.
We take recycling seriously, so we try to consciously use all of material and do not waste leftovers. Even the smallest pieces of fabric are used. Large quantities are used to make carpets, rugs, lamps or other large objects. Smaller pieces are used to make purses, beauticians, children’s toys and home decorations. And from really tiny tiny remnants we do small nice things such as brooches, bracelets or key rings.
Almost everything in the Buubok studio is hand made. Our labels are created with useless wallpaper, hand-cuted by us. Next we decorate them with our logo stamped by self made rubber stamp. Packaging and gift bags for our products also are made by us: with newspapers, pages from magazines or calendars. The ones we like most are made from pages of old, unwanted books intended for waste paper.
