Corbin Clay - The Azure Furniture

The Rocky Mountains consist of four million acres of beetle-killed pinewood, which poses a large forest fire risk. Corbin saw this wealth of unused reserve as an opportunity and started The Azure Furniture.

The Rocky Mountains consist of four million acres of beetle-killed pinewood, which poses a large forest-fire risk. Corbin saw this wealth of unused reserve as an opportunity and started The Azure Furniture. Having apprenticed with an 80-year-old German furniture maker, Corbin's pieces are not only eco-friendly and hand-crafted, but are making heirloom furniture more accessible as the business expands. By harvesting the beetle-killed trees, the process reduces the chance of forest fires, allowing the remaining trees to prosper.
