Tucked away in the Finger Lakes region of New York, is the small and sustainable-minded furniture company, Miles & May. Brandon and Amy Philips have been designing and crafting furniture for 14 years, beginning in Brooklyn, and then relocating their studio to a converted cracker factory in Geneva, New York. The beauty of their work lies in contrast. Solid and sturdy forms seem to levitate on delicate legs. Deep, dark Wenge wood is laid seamlessly into buttery Walnut. Old and discarded wood is reclaimed with a new, contemporary life. While each piece has a distinctive sculptural quality, it is inviting and begs to be lived-in.

Miles & May furniture is produced with a minimal environmental impact, re-using building timbers and felled trees from local farmland. They stay true to form, by making minimal cuts to preserve the original size and texture of each piece, using the tiniest scraps to heat their workshop. Waste not, but we definitely want.
