About Us — a local workshop with global thinking

We are a design-led production studio that reimagines surplus and salvaged materials as refined furniture and functional art. Founded by craftspeople and sustainable designers, our mission is to replace waste with value and to build furniture that performs beautifully while minimizing environmental impact. We source materials from local deconstruction projects, reclaimed wood suppliers, and post-industrial streams, and apply traditional joinery combined with modern surface treatments to ensure longevity. Each item goes through careful selection, cleaning, stabilizing and finishing — which means a finished piece carries the history of its materials and the integrity of solid workmanship. We collaborate with interior designers, hotel procurement teams and retail partners to supply ranges and one-off commissions; we also offer small-batch production runs with full traceability, material certificates and repair-minded warranties. Beyond manufacturing, we run educational workshops on repair, design-for-disassembly and circular procurement to empower clients to choose resilient, low-footprint furniture.

Why partners choose us — key strengths

Material Traceability & Responsible Sourcing

Our procurement philosophy prioritizes full material traceability and responsible reuse. Every batch of reclaimed timber or repurposed metal that enters our production pipeline is logged, photographed and assigned a material identity record. These records track origin, previous use, treatment history and structural properties so designers and procurement officers can make confident, code-compliant choices. When clients require documentation for green building credits or sustainability reporting, we provide the data packages that verify chain-of-custody and reuse percentages. Beyond compliance, this transparency allows us to select materials for functional longevity: dense, well-seasoned planks for structural surfaces; stable veneers for cabinetry; and finished textiles assessed for wear-resistance. Our approach reduces the demand for virgin resources and demonstrates how reclaimed supply can be professionalized for commercial and hospitality projects without compromising on performance or aesthetics.

Design-Led Upcycling & Customization

We blend creative furniture design with pragmatic manufacturing to unlock the aesthetic potential of reused elements. Our in-house designers interpret the unique qualities of each salvaged component—knots, patina, bolt holes—and recompose them into coherent product systems. Clients can commission custom dimensions, finishes and joinery details or select from curated upcycled collections that balance material-driven character with production efficiency. Because every project begins with an honest assessment of available stock, we propose designs that celebrate irregularities rather than force them into unsuitable molds. The result is furniture that has narrative depth—tables with layered planks showing age, benches with repurposed structural steel legs, and upholstered items using reclaimed textile panels. For commercial partners, we develop scalable variants that retain the original craft while enabling batch consistency.

Durability, Repairability & Lifecycle Support

A central tenet is that sustainable furniture must be long-lived and repairable. We build with mechanical joinery, replaceable components and clear repair strategies so that each piece can be maintained rather than thrown away. Our warranty program includes repair guidance and a network service option where we handle on-site or workshop repairs. For hospitality clients, we provide spare-part kits—leg replacements, hinge sets, and finish touch-up materials—that extend in-field service life. We also advise on material pairings and finish regimes to reduce wear in high-use environments, choosing robust coatings and abrasion-resistant fabrics. By designing for disassembly, we ensure that when a product reaches the end of its useful life, its valuable materials can be recovered and reincorporated into new products, closing the loop in a practical manner.

Local Production & Reduced Transport Footprint

Our production footprint emphasizes local processing to minimize transport emissions and to strengthen regional supply chains. Sourcing nearby reclamation projects and using neighborhood workshops reduces outbound freight and shortens lead times for clients across retail, interior design and hospitality. Local manufacturing also enables close collaboration on samples, quicker iterations during prototyping, and more efficient logistics for large installation jobs. Clients appreciate that localized runs reduce the carbon intensity of furniture deliveries and provide job opportunities for local craft communities. We partner with local carriers and offer consolidated shipping options to further optimize deliveries for multi-item orders or staged rollouts for hotel refits and retail rollouts.

Quality Assurance & Finish Excellence

High-quality finishing is what elevates reclaimed materials into market-ready products. Our quality assurance process includes dimensional checks, structural testing, moisture-stability verification and finish-bench approvals. Surface treatments are selected to enhance durability and to respect the original character of the material—matt sealing to protect patina, hard-wax oils for tactile warmth, or industrial lacquers where heavy wear is expected. Upholstered items undergo abrasion and stain testing with choices of recycled or low-impact fabrics to meet hospitality standards. For every production run we maintain an approval sample that serves as a benchmark and ensures color, assembly and tactile quality remain consistent. This attention to detail makes reclaimed furniture suitable for premium retail and intensive commercial environments.

Partnerships, Education & Community Impact

We cultivate partnerships with designers, social enterprises and training programs to amplify circular-economy impacts locally. Educational workshops teach repair skills, small-business reuse techniques and design-for-disassembly principles to community groups and apprentices. We also collaborate with architects and procurement teams to pilot reuse strategies in larger fit-outs, documenting outcomes and sharing methodologies. Profits from selected product lines support community repair cafes and material-collection events, creating a closed-loop ecosystem where waste becomes an accessible resource. By embedding these activities into our operating model, we aim to scale the social and environmental benefits of reclaimed production beyond individual commissions.

Offerings — what we deliver

Bespoke Commissioned Furniture

We partner directly with clients on one-off commissions and limited series that prioritize narrative-rich design and high craft standards. Beginning with a design brief and material audit, we propose concept sketches, prototype samples and finish options that respond to the available reclaimed stock. Our process includes structural engineering reviews where necessary and a staged approval workflow so stakeholders can sign-off on look, function and assembly methods. For commercial clients, we provide production scheduling and site delivery coordination including installation. Each bespoke item is accompanied by care instructions and repair recommendations so longevity remains a priority. The collaboration model allows unique storytelling through furniture—each piece is tailored to a place, client or themed concept while retaining material integrity and performance.

Small-Batch & Collection Production

For retailers and boutique hospitality projects seeking coherent product ranges, we design small-batch collections that harmonize reclaimed elements into repeatable, manufacturable variants. Each collection is engineered for reliable assembly and consistent finish while keeping visible material variation as an aesthetic feature. Production planning includes yield estimates, nesting layouts, and finish-boarding to maximize recovered-material use and minimize offcuts. We also offer packaging design optimized for sustainable transit, and can accommodate private-label branding and labelling. Small-batch production balances the craft-driven character of upcycled materials with the predictability required by retail distribution and professional procurement.

Commercial Fit-Out & Hospitality Supply

We provide end-to-end supply solutions for hotels, restaurants and coworking spaces—from consultation and mockups to full delivery and on-site installation. Our team supports specification packages, mock-up approvals, and phased rollouts that align with refurb schedules. We understand commercial durability requirements and offer finishes and upholstery choices that meet hospitality-grade standards. For larger contracts, we coordinate logistics for staged deliveries and provide on-call maintenance and part-supply for the operational lifetime of the furniture. By integrating reclaimed materials into fit-outs, clients reduce embodied carbon while gaining bespoke aesthetic value and engaging guests with authentic, material-driven interiors.

Design Consultancy & Material Strategy

Our consultancy service helps organizations embed reuse into procurement and design strategies. We conduct material audits, define reuse targets, and create procurement playbooks that enable circular-material sourcing at scale. Services include feasibility studies, sample boards, lifecycle estimations and specification templates for reuse-friendly joinery and finishes. We work with architects and specifiers to integrate reclaimed materials early in the design process, creating pathways to lower embodied carbon and improved resource circularity. Consultancy engagements can lead to pilot collections, operational guidelines for onsite salvage, and training sessions for in-house maintenance teams to extend product longevity.

Repair, Refinish & Refurbish Services

Extending service life is a core offering: we repair structural issues, refinish surfaces, and reupholster using recycled or low-impact fabrics. For clients with existing furniture inventories, we provide refurbishment programs that can refresh worn items, replace high-wear components, and update aesthetics while retaining original frames. This service reduces replacement costs and lowers environmental impact by keeping usable resources in service. We provide transparent condition reports, cost estimates, and timelines; on approval, refurbishment work is scheduled to minimize operational disruption. The service is ideal for hotels and offices pursuing circular procurement policies or budget-friendly sustainability upgrades.

Workshops, Training & Community Programs

To foster a repair and reuse culture, we run hands-on workshops and training for designers, tradespeople and community groups. Sessions cover basic furniture repair, finishing techniques, upcycling design principles and how to set up small-scale reclamation streams. For corporate partners, we design bespoke trainings to introduce procurement teams to circular-material vetting and lifecycle thinking. Community programs include material-days where residents can drop off salvageable pieces for assessment, and repair cafes where people learn to mend rather than discard. These programs spread knowledge, reduce waste and create local material economies that support both social and environmental goals.
