MAX MCMURDO officially started his career turning junk into
treasure as a child crafting washing up liquid bottles into
spaceships! After graduating from Bournemouth University with a 2:1
in Product Design and Visualisation in 2000, Max fulfilled his
boyhood dream and became a car designer in Cologne, Germany.
In 2003 he established his business reestore ltd with the aim to
design and create a range of upcycled furniture and accessories
from objects destined for landfill. By 2007, reestore had won
several design awards and featured in many galleries and
exhibitions and Max decided to pitch it to BBC's Dragons Den for
investment. After a successful pitch, he left with investment from
Deborah Meaden and Theo Paphitis. Reestore now has a client list
that includes The Body Shop and has completed several installations
for Google's head offices globally. In 2014 the company won gold at
the Chelsea Flower show with Kate Gould Gardens.
Max is also a TV presenter and after two series of George Clarke's
Amazing Spaces, Fill Your House For Free and Channel 4's summer hit
Shed of the Year he is now the go- to presenter for product design
and repurposing.
"Max is an upcycling alchemist who turns junk into something
wonderful"
