Our wood comes from recycled industrial ceiling rafters - solid, tough and weathered. Sanding and treating each piece with natural wax allows us to create wood components that have a unique color and texture, are sturdy and lasting. The combination of aged solid wood and heavy steel with traditional handcrafting results in substantial objects. 
Pure, no trends: Authentic. The_Design_Pieces/The_Design_Pieces.html

We salvage steel created during Pittsburgh’s legendary industrial age, including remnants of a steel bridge that fell into the Monongahela river decades ago. We sandblasted the best pieces and repurposed them for one-of-a-kind creations. 
Hand crafted, for generations: history.The_Design_Pieces/The_Design_Pieces.html
Heavy steel combined with radiant colors are the inspiration for our light objects crafted with blow torches and forged or welded into new forms. Some installations feature laminated glass and color sheet technology, resulting in objects that provide a warm and soothing glow. 
Innovative crafting, substantial materials.
