Being a developer requires the ability to think creatively and enhance value wherever possible. Both the design and sustainability aspects of development incorporates each of these traits. Design includes choosing types of materials with the functionality and history to support your project.
Welcome Planet Reuse, an awesome company which makes reclaimed material reuse easier. They basically act as a broker for reusable material, and with the increased effort to keep usable materials out of landfills, the company has grown rapidly.
Here are some of the current listings I found particularly cool:
Reclaimed Antinque Marble Floors (From outside Independence Hall in Philly)
Planet Reuse is a great concept and can be a great resource for developers who can think creatively. Think about it, you take old bathroom partitions, polish, cut and boom you have new marble (or what looks like marble) flooring. In today’s market it takes developers who can be dynamic in all aspects of their project to be successful.
Do you know of any other companies which provide a similar service?
