Best thing besides how hot it looks is how Eco friendly it is. It is made of FSC plywood’s and is formaldehyde free ply woods, locally sourced lumber from managed forests and sustainable materials such as bamboo and sorghum borard. Each piece is finished with a low VOC water based topcoat or an all natural hand applied oil wax finish. Now that is even more of reason to love this beauty!!

I have been pondering over the idea of re-doing my messy craft area for some time now. I always forget about it as it seems like way too much work. But if I do, perhaps this Eco-friendly piece can be used to store crafts in it. I’m thinking of designing a modern craft area. With a lot a white lacquer, a modern table for my sewing machine and parsons bookcases for my crafting items that I will store in Ball jars. I’ll need room for all my wicker baskets that will warm up the modern space ( I don’t like any of my design work to scream too much of a theme, I always want it to be “off” a little bit, it just makes it more interesting, this was also a very important design concept that was stressed by some of my best teachers when I was in design school). I want gorgeous modern lamps and a simple white modern chair at the desk. I’m also thinking of one high end French antique chair in the room as well. I’ll put a small table and some fabulous building blocks nearby for Oliver to play with while I create stuff. My next thought goes to wall coverings, I want something “swanky” bold and modern, I’m thinking Nina Campbell is the girl for this job. Her designs are fantastic, maybe you have seen her work in Domino magazine. She rocks!!
