Urban Woods is the leading designer of sustainable furniture from reclaimed wood, eco-friendly materials and environmentally conscious manufacturing processes. The distinct beauty of reclaimed wood, finished with rich water based, non-toxic stains, is preserved in handmade furniture and made in Los Angeles, California.
The Palisades Collection, seen above, was designed to accentuate the natural beauty of the vintage wood used to craft each element. The solid legs of the dining table are creatively exposed at the table top, showing the incredibly tight, clear grain of the wood. The naturally aged patina in the thick planks of the table top and bench are lightly sanded, preserving their history. The Palisades floor mirror opens up any room like a grand portal and makes a great front hall mirror.
Much of the reclaimed wood was originally harvested and milled 50 to 100 years ago, giving the wood unparalleled stability and resistance to future distortion. At Urban Woods they strive to make beautiful, eco-friendly furniture in the most sustainable way. They never use tropical hardwoods which harm the rain forest to harvest, MDF or toxic glues.
The Melrose Living Room Collection seen above offers a credenza that is fully equipped for all your media needs. It is pre-wired for cable and power, with three push sensitive drawers for organizing media and two cabinets for all electronic components. Wide and comfortable club chairs with organic cotton upholstery surround the coffee table, which has a low profile drawer for housing remote controls. The Melrose book case is open on all sides to exhibit personal mementos and maintain an airy living space.
Urban Woods exclusive use of vintage reclaimed wood has many advantages; the grain of the timber with its tight growth rings shows the superior density of the wood from ancient trees, and the natural, aged patina and color of the old-growth timber is preserved in the manufacturing process, giving the furniture a look and feel that can not be replicated in new wood.
