Second-hand Style

What you see: floors made from reclaimed wood that had once been used as bleacher seats in a nearby high school. “The floors are one of our favorite features,” says Mark. “I have visited that high school and would like to think the wood is the same bleachers I sat on 20 years ago.”

What you don’t see: less depletion of scarce resources due to the Sharps’ choice of furnishings and accessories made from sustainable materials. The chairs and floor pillow are made from sea grass (a renewable plant that is trimmed, not killed, for harvesting), the throw from organic cotton, and the rug from bamboo.
