SKATE STUDY HOUSE MAKES FURNITURE BASED ON A PASSION for mid-century design, skateboard culture and California lifestyle.

From their website, “SSH specializes in recreating popular furniture through the vision of a skateboarder. The movement of a skateboarder constantly changes — it recreates itself by transcending boundaries and inventing ways to conquer obstacles. It’s constantly about anticipation and adaptation to one’s environment. The same is true for living design. The combination of the two produces a mixture of contemporary lifestyle, art and action sports culture, which is all found in this unique collection.”
