If you're making it a mission to be more sustainable in 2022, there are so many ways you can incorporate into it your home, from decreasing the amount of disposable plastic and paper you use to trying more natural cleaning products. If you want to take it one level further in the new year, you can shop more sustainably for your furniture too.
More than ever, new brands are emerging and making an effort to create pieces that are less harmful to the environment. These range from wood pieces that are handcrafted and recycled to even upholstered sofas made with less harmful chemicals. Ahead, we rounded up seven brands to shop right now that you can feel good about buying from. Plus, they're stylish and will add a little something new and fresh to your space. Take a look.
Avocado Green Mattress: Mid-Century Modern Bed Frame
You might have tried Avocado Green Mattress's eco-friendly mattresses, but the brand is expanding big time into furniture. The Avocado Mattress Mid-Century Modern Bed Frame ($2,299-$3,499) is made from reclaimed walnut wood crafted in its California workshop. The slanted legs give it a unique mid-century modern look that we love.
Avocado Green Mattress: Eco Wood Dresser
Another sustainable piece from the brand is the stylish Avocado Eco Wood Dresser ($2,310). Made from 100-percent reclaimed wood, with a cool finish, it's a purchase you can feel good about. Plus, the large drawers are so spacious for all your stuff.
Burrow: Range 4-Piece Open Sectional Lounger With Table
One of our favourite sofa brands that makes seriously great modular couches that you can configure to your likings is Burrow. The brand is also committed to being more sustainable. Its sturdy frames are built with sustainably-sourced hardwoods, and the cushions are all CertiPUR-US certified to be free of ozone depleters, formaldehyde, heavy metals, flame retardants, and harmful things found in non-certified cushions. We especially love the Burrow Range 4-Piece Open Sectional Lounger With Table ($1,730), because it's cool design can fit into any space, and it even comes with a side table.
Burrow: Field 5-Piece Sectional
You'll work, lounge, take calls, and nap on this Burrow Field 5-Piece Sectional ($2,595). The long design on both sides makes it a smart choice for a cosy corner space. Available in two colours and three different leg finishes, it's the perfect way to make the most of what you've got.
The Citizenry: Hinoki Wood Bench
The Citizenry is one of our favourite brands that makes sustainable and fair-trade pieces all over the world. Its commitment providing more eco-friendly choices goes beyond just furniture, they also sell rugs and home linens. When it comes to furniture though, we love this beautiful and sleek Hinoki Wood Bench ($1,250), which was handcrafted with locally sourced hinoki in Okawa, Japan.
The Citizenry: Hinoki Wood Side Table
If you want more of the brand's sustainably sourced wood pieces, then get the The Citizenry Hinoki Wood Side Table ($395). The round design is perfect for an end table or for by your bedside. It comes in both a round, and unique half-moon shape.
West Elm: Industrial Storage Pop-Up Coffee Table
While not all of West Elm's furniture pieces are sustainable, the brand is committed to add more eco-friendly finds to its lines. The West Elm Industrial Storage Pop-Up Coffee Table ($699-$849) is made made in its fair trade certified facility from sustainably sourced mango wood. Plus, the storage lift-top design, is just incredibly smart and useful. Win. Win.
West Elm: Emmerson Reclaimed Wood Dining Table
Another piece from the brand's reclaimed wood line is the stunning West Elm Emmerson Reclaimed Wood Dining Table ($1,099-$1,799). We love that you can mix and match it with chairs, or even the matching bench. It comes in three different sizes, so you can choose the one that fits into your space.
Joybird: Lewis Grand Sofa
Joybird is committed to providing its factory workers a fair trade environment offering competitive wages and benefits. In addition to making sure its workers are happy creating these handcrafted pieces, they also give back to the planet. For every purchase made, the brand helps to fund reforestation and restoration programs in North America with the One Tree Planted organisation. It sells a ton of great sofas, but our current favourite is the Joybird Lewis Grand Sofa ($3,004). It looks soft, comfy, and of course, stylish.
Joybird: Hudson Coffee Table
A new coffee table can make any living room feel like new, and we love the Joybird Hudson Coffee Table ($2,627). The stylish design will make a statement, while also blending in with your other pieces. The large round design and cool wood finish is a winner in our book.
Medly: Gio Sofa
Medly is making it a mission to offer more furniture pieces with less harmful chemicals. Without using harsh products like fire retardants, (which you can often find on upholstered fabrics) the brand is omitting far less into the environment. Plus, in partnership with the the National Forest Foundation, they plant three trees for every one used to build one of its designs. One of our favourites from its collection collection is the Medly Gio Sofa ($1,657, originally $1,841). The green shade is so pretty, and we adore the wood leg detail.
Medly: Palder Bed
Refresh your bedroom overnight with the Medly Palder Bed ($2,966-$3,506, originally $3,295-$3,895). The sleek and minimal design won't take a ton of space, but looks stylish. It also comes in a darker walnut wood finish, if the lighter maple choice isn't for you.
Maiden Home: Morro Tables
If you're looking for a luxury brand, then try Maiden Home. Each piece is handcrafted and made-to-order, so they don't have wasteful excess pieces lying around. The fabrics and woods are responsibly sourced, and crafted with non-toxic materials. We love the Maiden Home Morro Tables ($725-$1,375), because they come in a number of sizes. You can get one, or a few to nest together.
Maiden Home: Ludlow Sofa
Go for one of the brand's comfy and stylish couches with the Maiden Home Ludlow Sofa ($2,475). The tufted back and wood legs make it feel elevated, and different. You can customise it in a handful of fabrics ranging from fabric to tweed, and even leather and bouclé. The legs come in four different wood finishes as well.
