ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS:
Recycle, reuse, reclaim, redecorate... environmentally friendly design tips for homeowners.
Design which is kind to the environment:
- The furniture and accessories from Britain's reestore are forerunners of contemporary eco design, with clever reuses for everyday waste, from old bathtubs and office chair bases to oil drums and car bumpers.
- UK designer Tom Dixon has been winning many awards lately, and has even opened up Shop at ABC Carpet & Home. We love his recycled vintage model 2nd Cycle line of chairs for Artek.
- Check out JMX Bamboo, a wholesale supplier for green flooring and molding resources as well as furniture and kitchen items.
- VivaTerra, from Pueblo, CO, is a valued resource for any home. Their entire line of eco-friendly products, from organic cotton bath towels to recycled glass dinnerware, can be purchased with confidence that you're putting a smile on Mother Nature's face. We love their rustic, quirky, and festive Peroba Wood Chairs from Brazil.
- Children's Chair and Table Set from iBride by Kobo is so cute and stylish -- and it's all made from reclaimed wood and recycled materials. Music to our ears.
Inspired by the popularity of YouTube and videos on the internet, Irwin Weiner and Jay Johnson created Design2Share in November 2006, an online podcast of advice and inspiration on homes, gardens, and architecture.
