“Objects that were made for function rather than style and form have an inherent authenticity," says Brian. "There’s nothing more satisfying than repurposing them into something that’s relevant for contemporary use”.

Up-Cycling Done Right From Groundwork
The industrial, repurposed aesthetic is something I've been fond of for a long time, so I am of course thrilled at our newest seller debuting on May 9th - Groundwork. Ernie Sesskin and his partner Brian Foster design pieces using industrial and architectural salvage which are then built with integrity by Amish woodworkers and metal smiths.
“Objects that were made for function rather than style and form have an inherent authenticity," says Brian. "There’s nothing more satisfying than repurposing them into something that’s relevant for contemporary use”. These pieces are truly one-of-a-kind, with a patina and history that can never be found in a catalog.
