Palo Samko NYC

Where some people see flaws in <a href="http://inhabitat.com/daniel-svahns-minimalist-picnic-table-is-made-from-a-pile-of-salvaged-timber-and-two-straps/">salvaged timber</a>, such as holes carved over time or stress splits, New York's <a href="http://www.palosamko.com">Palo Samko</a> sees beauty. So instead of hiding these so-called imperfections, the carpenter, designer and devoted father showcases them in his reclaimed furniture - though he also ensures his pieces are structurally sound by incorporating unique joinery into the designs. We are big fans of his work and highly recommend that you seek out the man and his art next week at <a href="http://www.bklyndesigns.com">BKLYN Designs 2013</a>.
