I'm home

There is a "HUDSON FURNITURE" showroom on the most glamorous street in the Meat Packing District, located in west Manhattan. Beautiful objects with organic lines and their original furniture which was recently released, line up in the showroom.
The petrified wood object design triggered "HUDSON FURNITURE" to get in the center of attention. The owner/designer, Barlas Baylar, was mesmerized by the appealing charm of petrified wood. That's how he started cutting the wood like tree stumps, and began creating unique objects by polishing them thoroughly. Because the color of wood differs according to the nutrients that were surrounding the wood, Barlas was able to create colorful pieces that garnered positive public attention. However, currently in the United States, collecting petrified wood is prohibited by law. Consequently, Barlas negotiated with embassies and consulates of the countries where beautiful and precious resources are destroyed and succeeded in achieving a permit to import those petrified wood into America. Moreover, while he traveled around the world collecting petrified wood, he learned that gigantic trees in many countries whose tree ages were more than 300 years old, are being destroyed by farmers. Incidentally, this inspired him to design various objects using scrap wood.
