PUNK IT UP

Why throw away perfectly good pieces of furniture or household items when you can PUNK IT UP?!

Who doesn’t know the old-school furniture, we inherit from our parents’ and grandparents’ homes? Great quality with sentimental value, but not quite fitting into our lifestyle and home. Why throw away perfectly good pieces of furniture or household items when you can PUNK IT UP?!

Reusing, redesigning, and repurposing are specialities of our global Fashion Ambassadors, VIN + OMI, who accepted the PUNK IT UP upcycling challenge.

Let’s PUNK IT UP! One System3 Acrylic Suite, 10 hours and 4 household items to be up-cycled and transformed with a new fresh look and feel.

Disclaimer: To allow Omi to focus his creative mojo, we primed and prepared each item upfront and provided him with an indestructible space to feel at home in our Daler-Rowney factory.

Thank you to Omi, from the British design duo VIN + OMI, for entering the PUNK IT UP challenge. You really smashed it and it was great fun to watch your approach and creativity! What are we gonna do next?!

A big thank you also to Imogen Ashby, Sarah Elwen and Rosa Brentnall for their amazing work behind the scenes and creative support throughout the whole shooting.

Thank you to the whole Ambanja Film Crew for taking the risk to film with us and all the water-resistant art materials of the System3 Acrylic Suite. It was a great pleasure to have you at the Daler-Rowney headquarters.

Health & Safety

System3 Acrylic colours are water-based, non-toxic, and solvent-free, suitable for use at home or in schools. Once dry, they’re water-resistant, durable, and lightfast, so protect your workspace to avoid staining.

  • They can be used indoors and outdoors on surfaces like canvas, metal, glass, masonry, and fabric. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of irritation, wash the area thoroughly and consult a GP.
  • Always follow the instructions for your intended application. Check guidance on surfaces, drying times, ventilation, and protective equipment – especially for splashing or spraying techniques.
  • Test on a small area first to avoid unwanted results. Ensure you have enough space to work safely and always spray or cut away from your body.
  • Clean tools with warm water straight after use. Recycle used materials wherever possible.
