When we think of reclaimed furniture, Nadia Yaron and Myriah Scruggs of Nightwood immediately come to mind. The pair collects what they call "lost furniture" in the Brooklyn area and reconstruct pieces from the fragments—and they've been doing it from the start, well before the reclamation trend began.
But Yaron and Scruggs aren't limited to furniture and cabinetry and have been working with designer Doug Newton of Remains Lighting in Bushwick to create a series of weighty brass lighting with a vintage appeal. Each retain the natural patina of their materials and most require a two- to three-week lead time; contact Nightwood for more information.
