he(ART) of Bellevue Kindred Industrial

Andrew and Melinda Kindred, the founders of Kindred Industrial, are dedicated to transforming reclaimed materials into stunning custom art and industrial furniture, embodying the spirit of second chances. Their creative journey began when they invested in a CNC plasma table, despite having no prior knowledge of CAD design or metal finishing. They emphasize the importance of using reclaimed wood and metal to craft pieces that tell new stories. The couple has actively participated in local shows, including the 6th Street Fair, to connect with art enthusiasts and potential customers. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has presented challenges, leading to the cancellation of many events.

In response, they have focused on refining their skills and expanding their creative offerings. Customers interested in their work can view past projects on their Facebook and Instagram pages, where they also accept commissions. With aspirations to grow their business into a full-time endeavor, they remain committed to creating meaningful art from salvaged materials.
