We’ve covered the some work of studio Alternatives and Sonali Phadke in previous steps 1.3, 3.3 and 3.4. Here and in the two coming steps we’ll focus on studio Alternatives’ upcycling of everything from furniture, lamps, decorations to the interior redesign of spaces and container-based spaces for living and learning.

In this video Sonal Phadke presents some highlights of the work by studio Alternatives in and around Pune, India. On this page here you have photos of some the projects and items mentioned in the video.
