The UE LIVE SAWN Collection offers a cohesive, full product suite from one single sustainable source:

Working with local and underutilized wood materials for the past 25 years has taught us to stretch beyond the expected and let nature be our guide to what is beautiful and acceptable in building design.

Benefits of live sawn include:

  • A more connected visual experience to the life and growth of the tree
  • Responsible wood sourcing to include urban wood, underutilized species, and selectively harvested Midwest lumber. 
  • Opportunities for regional and local sourcing
  • Maximizing wood yields
  • Lower waste manufacturing 
  • Healthy interior finishes
