Our MissionWe are dedicated to reinvesting the inherent value of historic used building materials back into the well-being of our local communities; preserving the built environment's architectural and lived histories; and reviving traditional crafts and skills that build healthier relationships between People, Place, and Planet.

How We Make a Difference
DeconstructionDeconstruction is the careful disassembly of structures, an alternative to traditional demolition. Our process diverts used, often historic, building materials away from landfills, creates stable entry-level jobs, and supports more sustainable construction practices.
|
Virtual Reality ReconstructionThe process includes the use of drones and 360° 3D rendering to revive historic structures and cultural heritage through virtual reconstruction. Lost structures can be visualized as they once existed, thanks to the integration of archaeological methods and virtual reality technology.
|
Historical DocumentationWhen homes and businesses are lost to demolition, so is the chance to record their histories. Alternatively, deconstruction provides the opportunity to research, document, and preserve the stories that connect people and communities.
