The Phoenix Collection

Monte Azul Designs (MAD) presents an innovative collection produced entirely from construction waste.


The Phoenix Line follows our contemporary aesthetic: simple shapes and maximum user comfort. Please visit our MAD section for details.


As we watched a pick-up truck carry off a highly (and precariously) stacked pile of wood scraps to be used as kindling, it occurred to us that there had to be a better use for all that material. It can’t all just go up in smoke!


From that moment, results the latest work that addresses our concern with air quality and waste of the Earth’s natural, beautiful resources.


Lovely stratus of colors derived from the various sections of the Cedro Amargo (Tropical or Spanish Cedar) from which they were cut. These thin strips were shaven off lumber to square, level and even out sizes.
