For today’s blog post I’ve put together this shortlist of fantastic sustainable interior brands. It’s in no way comprehensive, but it’s a great start if you’re looking to decorate your home mindfully. We’re all aware that the choices we make have a big impact on the environment, so let’s choose brands that help us make that impact a more positive one.
Urban Collective
Urban Collective is a premium lifestyle brand with a strong eco-friendly ethos. Not only do they use sustainable materials such as recycled wool and bamboo, but their textiles hold the Global Organic Textile Standard. This means they’re manufactured in a way that uses fewer chemicals and less energy and water.

It’s not often one can tout the eco-credentials of a global corporation but H&M appear to be making good ground in this area. It started with the Conscious range of clothing, and now they have an extensive Conscious homewares collection. The collection features gorgeous textiles made from organic cotton and Tencel; a sustainably sourced wood fibre.
