SBN Detroit Interviews Bo Shepherd, Co-Owner of Woodward Throwbacks

Detroit is filled with abandoned buildings that have usable materials rich in the city's manufacturing and architectural history. Bo Shepherd, co-owner and designer of Woodward Throwbacks, is sustainably transforming these materials into original products.

"Detroit is so rich in its culture, art, design, architecture, and right now, Detroit is going through a transformation where it is literally being rebuilt. Our part is in saving the material and transforming it into something new," Shepherd said.
