This gorgeous handcrafted Swirl Rattan Headboard by David Francis Furniture is made from mahogany solids (plantation-grown hardwoods, meaning no wood species are utilized from endangered rainforests) with sustainable pencil rattan laminate in artfully placed in a swirl pattern. It is available in all sizes, in many finishes including custom finish matching capabilities, and is suitable for contract use.

There’s a lot to love about the Hampton Poster Bed from GREENCulture, Inc., starting with the ornate turning in the posts and antiqued Shell and Midnight finishes, to its production using sustainably harvested wood. Available in original and low poster styles, in Queen and King sizes. It would be amazing in all decorative settings.

I am loving the Woodland Sanctuary bathroom concept by Nikki Blustin and Oliver Heath of Blustin Heath Design for Kohler. It is a great example of utilizing indirect lighting and color to create mood and set design tone. I also respect the designer’s use of natural and sustainable resources.
Via Kohler: Nature’s Design The dark Wenge wood of the Escale® Suite vanity, combined with translucent eco-resin wall panels, inspire the bather to feel the peace of total seclusion. Floating ceiling panels above the bath emit a gentle light through leaf-shaped cutouts, evoking a sense of evening sunlight filtering through a canopy of trees. The KOHLER Escale bath, toilet, lavatories and vanity, combined with Symbol™ faucets, offer smooth contours that mimic nature’s rhythms. Textured flooring by Ann Sacks® of pebbles in Ocalla tan caress the bather’s feet, and WaterTile™ bodysprays and showerheads provide a customized hydrotherapy experience in the shower. Adjustable sprayfaces change the direction of water for targeting specific areas of the body. The DTV™ shower system allows bathers to preset their preferences, including temperature, sequence of spray pattern, and pressure–all at the touch of a button. Blustin adds, “WaterTiles really help to harmonize the room. They touch the body at different points, summoning the feeling of a gentle rain or perhaps a waterfall.”Sounds good to me, please pass the bubble bath!

Whats not to love- good looks and good for the earth? Re_Collection ceramic tiles from Mirage are fabricated to look and feel like natural wood, without the concerns (such as warping, aging, scratching, etc.) of natural wood. These tiles can be used in applications where wood is not appropriate, such as wet and high-traffic areas. Inspired by burnt wood, the use of heat during production creates the cracks on the surface simulating a weathered wood plank. It is also through the heat process in which the tile becomes very more solid and strong. Rich colors and aged effects add to the character which is so apparent in natural wood, making the tiles look and feel very authentic.
Re_Collection tiles are available in several finishes and colors, resistant to most common acids, are non combustible, heat resistant, stain resistant, frost resistant, stable chromatically (colors do not change when exposed to sun, weathering, or smog), and are environmentally friendly. Although the tiles are ceramic made from natural materials, they are more sustainable than using wood, with low environmental impact.
