Refined wood may look stunning almost all of the time, but there are moments when natural, raw finishes are more appreciated: Enter North on Sixty. They displayed their most recent work at the Interior Design Show 2011 and it was made up of fabulous pieces that featured the great, gritty grain of their materials.
Considering that North on Sixty's material is reclaimed from old barn wood, I'm not surprised at the amazingly aged look that it acquires. From cabinets to tables and sofas, their line is quite expansive.
