old friends Sometimes old is better than new, as ably demonstrated by these salvaged redwood beams from TerraMai. Sourced from dismantled West Coast structures and from wine, olive, and water tanks, the old-growth redwood is prized for its resistance to rot and decay. Beams measure up to 14 inches wide, 14 inches thick, and 20 feet long. They can be speced in “as is” weathered gray or resawn to reveal warm tones. TerraMai, 800.220.9062; www.terramai.com.
