reclaimed wood media console

Lucky Blu Designs scours NYC and Connecticut for reclaimed wood from old buildings under renovation or demolition. From their character-laden salvaged wood they craft tables, desks and unique pieces of furniture like this media console (above and below).

This media console is from the designer’s SOHO Collection and features an open concept storage area, a variety of carefully selected recycled and reclaimed woods and steel legs. The interior storage area is finished with a dark Jacobean stain – with a clear sealant applied inside and out.

I like the idea of placing modern technology – like your bloated flat screen TV – on top of a OOAK chunk of New York City history. Lucky Blu’s designs range from reclaimed rustic, to mid-century modern, to modern industrial and hybrids of all three styles. With a sleek meets retro aesthetic, it’s perfect for loft-like settings or any space with a funky urban sensibility. The console retails for $495 – $695 – depending on size.
