I am committed to saving items from landfill and giving them new life. I always strive to reclaim as much timber as possible, whether it's from recycling stores, leftover from local joineries, or repurposed furniture. Occasionally, I may use new timber if a specific variety is requested, however I would always encourage giving existing materials a second life as this is the backbone of my work.
