Cory Barkman gives tired objects a second chance by repurposing them as curious pieces of furniture, with a modern yet gothic edge. To make the pieces, Barkman reclaims old pieces of machinery that have fallen to disuse, and refashions them into everything from lamps to dining room tables. With so many items discarded at the end of their lifespan, Barkman believes that by reusing old objects, you only promote their endurance.
