Class description
Are you looking for upcycling ideas? Then you've come to the right place! Our furniture upcycling workshop in Berlin is the perfect opportunity to turn your ideas into reality. Make a sustainable designer piece with us and give it an individual touch!
What is the process?
In our upcycling workshop, you can learn a few things that are helpful for your crafting skills. We have the best ideas for working with wood.
- Only floorboards from the surrounding area are used, which you prepare together with the team
- Nails and screws are removed
- Old plaster and markings sanded off
- When the wood is clean and smooth, it is then transformed into the stool model designed by Geyersbach
- You will learn a lot about wood processing, from the selection of materials to practical applications such as sanding, gluing and oiling
- You will learn many techniques and machines that you can use at home for your own projects
- From start to finish of the workshop, you will receive useful help as well as tips and tricks from the workshop leader
- When the last move is finally done, you go home with your unique piece, because: What color should the seat of your stool be — that's up to you
Who is the course for?
The workshop is suitable for anyone who wants to learn everything about upcycling and ensure a little more sustainability in the world. Whether you are a beginner, an experienced amateur carpenter or a prospective professional - everyone is in good hands in this course. Nice living — and with a clear conscience. In this workshop, you will make your own piece of furniture without using newly cut wood: Ulf Geyersbach will show you how to recycle old wood and turn it into a piece of furniture in mint condition.
What is included?
- You will be provided with all materials such as paint, wood and carpentry tools
- Of course, we will give you instructions on how to use our utensils so that everything runs safely
- Under professional guidance from our workshop leaders, you will then learn how to make your own stool from old furniture
- Soft drinks and, if you wish, an after-work drink after work is done are included. At lunchtime, we like to eat something together in the pizza beer garden next door (for our own account)
Where does the upcycling workshop take place?
The meeting point for the upcycling workshop is the Geyersbach showroom at Kopenhagener Straße 17 in Berlin. After an introduction and introductory round, we go to a rustic wood workshop next door, which is equipped with all classic woodworking machines and lots and lots of atmosphere.

Ulf Geyersbach
Ulf Geyersbach gives old wood a second life as a unique piece of furniture. The old hallway becomes a stool, the chamber door a bench, the baseboard a shelf.
