Interior design in itself could be considered as sustainable. It is supposed to be long-lasting and resold at the end. However, in the last few years, new tendencies surged leading to a fast consumerism of decor and interior objects. Ikea, new pieces of furniture for each season, Instagram pictures are the main issue leading to these practices. In this article, we will talk about a few brands that are using organic products, recycling, Greenguard certified or fair trade label. We will also show you our favourite pieces to make your home cosy, classy and chic.
Graham and Green:
This brand does not only have sustainable products but they offer two inspirations: recycled and reclaimed & eco-friendly collection.
Offering those options are a plus for us. Looking at their prices they are in the medium range.
Of course, we would love to see a more sustainable and fair trade product on their website but love their first step so far.
Here are some of our favourite pieces from them:
