Rugged Reclaimed Furniture – Rail Yard Studios

Nothing says finished man like ruggedly sexy home decor. Forget throw pillows and pastel color schemes- Rail Yard Studios has begun building stunning, macho furniture out of reclaimed rail ties and pieces of historical railways. Some of the pieces of steel and nails used were originally placed as far back as 1899, and were being sold for scrap when the railways were scheduled to be updated. Normally, rail ties are creosote treated, but often before they even get to that stage, they are singled out for flaws and slated to be sent to the furnace. This brilliant design house intercepts these ties before they’re completely wasted and creates the intriguingly badass furniture pictured after the jump.rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios wine rack made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios bench made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios bookends made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios shelf made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios wine rack made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios table made from rail ties and rail spikes rail yard studios chair made from rail ties and rail spikes

Author, Designer, and "that girl your mother warned you about." Looking good seems to be my job, whether it's working with the site design, or a number of other more interesting capacities. I have a ridiculous sense of humour and a brutal sense of honesty- you'll see a lot of that coming through in my writing, so don't say I didn't warn you if I somehow manage to offend you AND hurt your feelings at the same time. On the plus side, it makes my dating and advice columns a lot more pertinent to an unfinished man in the real world.

  1. Great style! Wanting to know where I can get it? I don’t want to have to start stripping rail ties myself… I think it’s illegal but That’s how much I want it…
