Founded in 1993 by partners Adam Hills and Maria Speake, whilst studying architecture in Glasgow, Retrouvius began as a way to help conserve the Victorian tenement buildings in the city’s reinvigorated West End. The scope of the company rapidly grew… from salvaged oddments and architectural elements to reclaimed stone, tropical hardwoods, eye-catching one-offs, lighting, and textiles. Our practice has gradually diverged along the two complementary fields of salvage (Adam) and design (Maria). In many ways, the Design Studio was founded to demonstrate what can be created from our salvaged stock.
