Established in 2010, they removed trees that were seen as unwanted wood to turn them into a natural treasure of beautiful artistic interior furnishings. They did this by upcycling and transforming unwanted industry by-products into new and improved materials of equal or better quality. By harvesting and upcycling the local trees that have to come down, they have preserved the history and soul essence of the tree here in San Francisco and the Bay Area for homes, office spaces, and showrooms.
DISTINCTIVE DETAIL OF THE SOUL TREES From tree-to-table, Arbor Upcycle builds furniture exclusively from San Francisco trees that are destined for the landfill. The vivid contour,
especially the live-edge wood, gives a sculptured quality. The beauty lies in the unique shape of the lumber slabs and in the grain of the wood which shows its character. If you appreciate natural wood designs, you may be drawn to these kinds of live-edge furnishings. No two pieces are alike, and not all live edge slabs are created equal. They also retain the wild spirit and character of the tree in each piece with a Tree ID History tracking system. This system makes Arbor Upcycle stand out as it identifies the true species and neighborhood in San Francisco where the tree once stood.
