Not all of us can score an original timber frame country house and barn like photographer Dan Martensen and model Shannan Click.  But UE can hook you up with the necessary reclaimed materials like hand hewn timbers, reclaimed flooring, siding and decking to give your new construction or renovation as much charm and character as seen here in photographs taking by Todd Selby.  Be sure to pop over to theselby.com to check out more amazing creative spaces.
