Up-cycled Studio
I am a HUGE fan of architectural salvage. If awesome old homes are going to be destroyed, at least craftsmanship from the past can be preserved in pieces. My favorite source is Gothic City Antiques in Buffalo, NY. Our latest project for the studio involved taking apart an old stair banister & spindles and reconstructing them at a different slope, adding salvage newel posts, and melding an exterior railing/spindle to the works.
