UNIKbikes parade of Small Things



The "Small Things" is a non profit organization whose mission is to reintegrate former homeless. The fight against exclusion is a gentle reintegration into the world of work. Whether the textile, furniture, appliances or bicycles, social workers repair and prepare individuals for donations of new life, because these objects are then sold in various brands of Small Things.

The 2010 edition was an opportunity to discover some incredible fashion creations, but not only ... For two years, the parade celebrates designers who are challenged to process, recycle, up-cycled "mere objects of everyday life.This year UNIKbikes had the honor to be invited to participate! So I made a bike in the colors of the association, from two of their wrecks ... The choice of a brushed finish, the treatment "oxidized" fork and painted details give particular shape to this bike. This juxtaposition of raw and rough with parts painted, polished, smooth and soft evokes this "transformation" taking place on the men of Small Things ... I will be the judge!
