Sustainably Sourced + Ethically Made

Sustainably Sourced + Ethically Made

As makers of sustainably sourced and ethically made furniture, our goal has always been to create with environmental preservation in mind. 
 

Here are some of the ways we celebrate Earth Day everyday:

- Using repurposed and reclaimed materials wherever possible in our collections, including recycled oil barrels, recycled rubber from tires, and reclaimed teak wood salvaged from old buildings. 

- Began the Indonesian Tree Planting Project, where we donated, planted and are currently monitoring over 500 trees in Central Java, Indonesia.

- Working alongside the villagers in Indonesia to help provide jobs and give back to the community.  

- Our products are also GreenGuard and Indonesian Legal Wood certified.

Creating the Perfect Work From Home Office featuring Jennifer Callahan

     
Over the past year, we have all learned that working from home without a designated work station space, can leave you feeling drained and uninspired. Which is why we decided to assist Jennifer Callahan of Simply Spaced in creating her own personalized and minimal WFH setup.
       
Featuring our Teak wood Ciao + Reef Desk with Drawer Space, a natural leather Grasshopper dining chair, along with some matching Teak wood Ciao shelves, and along her designer, Dany of Spatial Solutions, we were able to create a one of a kind space that fit her LA home studio perfectly. 
 
   
"Dany suggested From the Source, known for their sustainably sourced hardwood furniture. I wanted the desk to be high quality, eco-friendly, and well-made and was happy to find out that they create small-batch, handcrafted furniture with reclaimed materials." - Jennifer Callahan

Be sure to check out Jennifer's full article My Minimal WFH Desk Setup on her lifestyle blog, Love Lulu.
   
  
From the Source features ready made desks, as well as live-edge hardwood tops and bases so you can design your own!  Download our Build Your Own Desk guide for more information.

Products We Love: The Perch Stool

 

Our most iconic piece to date, the Perch stool is organic and sleek, and features a solid Teak root seat. Each seat is hand carved and completely unique from one another due to the marbling in the grain of salvaged Teak root. Choose from a variety of frame materials, including iron with a clear powder coat or brushed stainless steel.

 

 

Hand Carved + Sustainably Sourced 


The sourcing of our teak root seats begins at the Indonesian Teak tree farms, which are run by the Indonesian government. They have created a program that allows the villagers to come in and dig up the Teak trees' roots so that they can create products and sell to help subsidize income for the community. They create items like our Teak root ball sculptures and Erosion bowls.

Over the years, we've been working with these villagers to create the perfect hand carved Teak root seat which has now become essential to our signature Perch stool, as well as essential to the village as a steady flow of income.

Springing into May: Renovating with Reclaimed Materials

Repurpose, Reuse, Remodel 

Yes, it's fin-e-ly May! Which means it's the perfect time to freshen up your living space by remodeling with a few sustainable pieces from one of our Reclaimed Materials collections.
 

Lancar Collection:

The Lancar Collection is another example of how recycled oil drums can be used to create functional streamlined pieces, such as cabinetry. These uniquely designed handcrafted dressers have minor dents and traces of color which date back to their previous industrial lives.

Pele Collection:

A fresh take on iconic designs, the Pele Collection is rejuvenated by creative reuse. Recycled oil drums become festive dining chairs and spacious lounge chairs. Bright colors and graphics are preserved to become part of the design. Selecting and combining the patterns and colors with an artful eye, they shape the panels and weld them to a steel frame. The vibrant motifs offer a reminder of their past use, even as they take on a new form.

This Mika Bookcase and Ikan Bed both take shape by using reclaimed Teak wood panels and iron detailing.  
 

Reclaimed Teak Wood:

Often repurposed from Teak panels salvaged from old buildings, reclaimed teak wood is much older than Plantation Teak wood and often exhibits characteristics such as elegance and increased durability.
