Originate was established in October of 2003 to provide a location within the City of Tucson to serve as a local and regional source of environmentally sound building materials and to provide a place where people can see and experience these materials. We are located in the Dunbar Spring Neighborhood. Originate is a natural building materials showroom that specializes in interior finishes that are environmentally friendly, non-toxic, durable, and made from natural, renewable, and recycled resources. We offer innovative and unique materials that rival the aesthetics and performance of more traditional interior finishes. Products include countertops, tile, flooring, building materials, paints & plaster, stains & sealers, adhesives & caulks, fireplaces, and salvaged building materials. Originate functions as a community resource. We enjoy sharing knowledge about natural building materials and helping you to make environmentally aware choices during the design and build process. Over the years, we have collaborated with many individuals and have built lasting relationships based on those connections. The individuals featured on our website are part of our network.
