124: Breathing New Life into Fallen Trees with San Diego Urban Timber

This special replay of Episode 30, Breathing New Life into Fallen Trees, features my friends Dan and Jessica of San Diego Urban Timber. I want to share this episode with you again as a reminder of the many amazing partners that we can work with locally that support our mission as holistic interior designers and that also bring something truly unique to our designs.&nbsp;Dan and Jessica build amazing pieces for homes out of reclaimed San Diego trees. The pieces they create are functional art, meaning they are beautiful and serve a purpose. They are visual proof of what can be done with our own natural resources—resources that would have otherwise been discarded. Dan and Jessica also share their story about how they began working with reclaimed wood and how San Diego Urban Timber grew into what it is today.
