William Stranger's Reclaimed Credenza

Homework LA -- featured on Avenue Associates' blog as well today -- is one of our favorite showrooms, and we're happy to see William Stranger's work gettting top billing. The Pasadena designer is using local wood (always) and reclaimed wood and materials (mostly). And despite the inevitable exhaust involved in carting his work to the Hollywood showroom, it is far more sustainably-minded to purchase materials made within a 10-mile radius than to usurp a credenza's worth of barge fuel and unknown labor practices shipping something across the ponds.
