The Brothers Dressler IDS11 collection shows just why these two interior designers are also considered master woodworkers. The collection showcased during the Interior Design Show 2011 in Toronto, Canada was filled with natural creations both tamed and untamed.
In particular, I think that the wild wood chandelier was the stunner in the Brothers Dressler IDS11 collection, but they also displayed chairs, tables and floor lighting -- all of which was made from salvaged materials. Twins Jason and Lars Dressler definitely deserve a pat on their backs.
