A few weeks ago, I was driving down 1st Avenue in the Belltown neighborhood of Seattle when my eyes instantly gravitated toward a neon sign with two of my favorite words, "urban" and "house". An offshoot of Urban Hardwoods, Urban House just recently opened in this design-oriented pocket of the city and its mixture of vintage classics and custom furniture (from reclaimed local trees) is well worth a second look.
In addition to furniture, the store is also carrying products from local designers and artists like Resolute Lighting and Laura Yeats.
So if you get a little weak in the knees from a live edge slab on hairpin legs, visit the store or check out more images online at Urban House.

What are "reclaimed trees"?
@ Emmi,
In this case, reclaimed trees are usually urban trees that had to be cut down or partially removed because they had been damaged in a storm or some other situation that made them unsafe for an urban area. Instead of going to a landfill or burned, they're reused for furniture.
Thank you for that answer. I just hope people do not mistake it for reclaimed wood, which is better because really, most downed trees get used by invertebrates, amphibians and all sorts of other animals. I can understand if it's in the road or something, but rarely is it better to remove a downed tree from an ecosystem.
I know FSC certified is often wood from downed trees or old, dead trees which need to be pruned. I am happier with using downed trees than I am deforestation, I am just not sure there is enough to be sustainable considering that snags and rotting logs are very important. Not trying to be a naysayer, LOL. Just wanted to toss in that extra info. ;)
This store is really cool ( I would know, I work next door to it). What I have an issue with is their incredible markups. You can find recycled wood and reclaimed wood on craigslist and ebay from local sources if you look hard enough. Buy the legs from a local hardware store and you basically have a table for 150$ as opposed to 3,500$. DIY is always an awesome option.
