Deconstruction

Deconstruction: Taking apart a building, to salvage what is useful and preserve the history of the wood.

Green wood

An environmentally responsible choice:  wood is one of the easiest materials to reuse - often reclaimed wood is higher in quality than new wood.

Antique wood

A historically sensitive choice: reclaimed timbers provide a sense of continuity and a historical link - the past is revealed in the timber’s patina, grain and signs of previous use.

Reclaimed Wood

A structurally sound choice: reclaimed timbers are desirable because of their low moisture content and dimensional stability.   .
