ABOUT SLEDGE SEATTLE

Deconstructing local historical homes, piece by piece, Sledge sustainably reclaims wood and processes it into reusable base materials. Using the mastery of local artisans, Sledge renews the life of the tree branches by building beautiful decorative and furniture pieces that respect their origin and patterns, creating deeper connections to any home.

​

In deconstruction, the building never dies, it simply reorganizes, transforming and branching off into countless new existences.  Patterns, life, and history enmeshed in a structure waiting to be released and reborn. Waiting to be carefully disassembled, valued, transformed, and celebrated in new and exciting uses.
