16 Eco-Friendly Home Decor Brands you Should Know
Updated: Jun 26
I saw a documentary the other day – Our Planet: Our Business on WWF and it made me think (I recommend you to watch this video). We are in control of our planet like never before – we decide on our and our children’s future. So, what can we do to help our only home - Planet Earth?
Eco-friendly interior design focuses on improving indoor air quality as well as reducing the impact that furniture/decor purchases have on the environment. As a result, they contribute to lower air pollution in the environment and reduce the risk of health problems.
We are already buying sustainable clothes and food …so why not home decor too? Fortunately, there are amazing brands offering Eco friendly and incredible design.
