What does a pair of vintage roller skates, a sack of oranges and your favourite waistcoat have in common…? No idea, but what we do know is: they can all look good hanging in your garage, kitchen or perhaps the back of your bed room door.

This storage system is made possible by combining a strong bio-plastic hook, a strap of jute webbing and a steel bracket. The brackets are designed to either attach to a wall or simply clip to the top of a regular door.

Once installed the Hook100 system gives a multitude of common, unique, bizarre and or random objects a place to hang out – ready for everyday use or just admiration.

Hook100 – What will you hang?

We are really getting into our outdoor structures…casitas, outdoor toilets and now the ‘Work’ Pod!

Creating outdoor spaces surrounded by nature not only enhances creativity but these days its also a great way of taking the office to your garden. We’ve been asked for a while to come up with a design so here it is.

Small, compact and functional and above all affordable. The work pod snugly fits a desk, a fold out sofa and a wood burner . The large double glazed, wrap-around windows and insulated walls and roof  make the space warm in winter and cool in summer.

The office Pod is adaptable in shape and size so if you interested in one for your outdoor space get in touch!

Living the dream is not easy… but it is totally worth it once you get things going and find your flow.

The core idea behind noThrow design is about designing for a shiny green future and not for landfill… not only products but homes too, tiny homes to be exact.

So here is the one we built. Its called ‘Can Midge’ and we are very happy with the results. The idea at large was to work, play and live the eco-life, seek out sustainable living and explore and expand on it where possible. So part of that was clicking off the grid, plugging in some solar panels and putting on the tool belt.

Plenty of sunshine is what keeps things switched on and powered up, and the tiny structure is what keeps things dry, warm and happy.

Of course all the materials were locally sourced and at times experimental, and where possible we used recycled/reclaimed content. The front and back doors where reclaimed from a flat being refurbished in Barcelona, and a lot of the wood was recycled.

Sheep wool is what we used for the insulation, wool is great in ares with high humidity, and especially good at keeping the heat in the winter time and out in summer.

Interested? Get in touch 🙂

A compost toilet is a great way to get a loo with a view and an important part of going grid free. 

Here is what we designed and built. A ‘functional fairytale’ look is how things ended up. Design plans for this will be available soon in our Do It Locally section of our site, so that you to can build it yourself wherever you are.

It is now official! We have re-branded and turned TAPEgear into noThrow design.

Why noThrow? We named ourselves noThrow to continuously remind ourselves to create products that are specifically built to last, using natural, recycled or sustainable materials. Products that spend more time in our homes than in the landfill.

On our website, you can not only see and buy our current products range but also have access to free downloads/blueprints of designs allowing you to make them anywhere in the world. You can also find out about all the cool interior design projects we have worked on over the past year and get some inspiration for your future house refurbishings.
