modish living

Sitting near the Sussex coast the Modish Living Showroom is run from a large 1000sq ft old barn where we would welcome you in to view many beautiful pieces of furniture.     

Modish Living Ltd was started by husband and wife team Hellen and Chris Barlow.  The company came to life out of a passion for beautiful sustainable design and a belief that reclaimed wood offers us an extraordinary material for making high quality furniture.  

Hellen's background in e-commerce and Chris' logistics and operational experience came together to create Modish Living in 2012.  Since then we have grown to offer the widest range of reclaimed wood furniture in the UK. 

The wood we use for our furniture comes from a variety of sources. Having always come from sustainable sources, we also focus on wood that has come from a previous industrial life, where the wood is rescued, dried, sanded and restored to reveal a material of age and character never seen in new wood. Some will have served as roof joists for over 100 years in Victorian buildings and is rescued prior to demolition.
