Drift on these Driftwood Tables!
I came across these amazing tables designed by award winning architects of Marcus O' Reilly Architects in Melbourne Australia. I think anyone who loves wood furniture that is reclaimed will love these tables. I'd call the look beach chic as the table foundations are modern styled steel legs while the table tops are made from driftwood found around the local beaches.

New Family Centre of Fun Nearing Completion!
 |
| Reclaimed MB Oak Flooring |
We're about a week or two away from the unveiling of the new Assiniboine Park Family Centre which is going to be another amazing addition to the popular Childrens Garden & Nature Playground! The beautiful reclaimed Oak flooring you see in the photos came from salvaging damaged or diseased Oak trees and re-purposing any Oak trees removed from the ongoing re-development of the park. I noticed that this building is substantially larger than the existing family centre and believe that this new building will be more if a multi-functional facility.
