Eco-Friendly Interior Design: Sustainable Furniture For Your Modern Home

A modern take on a Victorian classic, the Cleo sofa is just one in a collection of completely sustainable and modern furniture.  Greener Lifestyles, based in Seattle, WA doesn’t believe you have to sacrifice your health, the environment or good design for well-made, long lasting pieces for your home.  Priding themselves on impeccible craftsmenship and attention to detail with 100% sustainability their goal, they’re always searching for the best non-toxic materials.  

Responsibly harvested FSC-certified wood is used for the frame, while sustainably harvested rubber tree sap is turned into their biodegradable and mold, mite and mildew-resisting latex cushions.  Anti-microbial and naturally fire-retardant organic wool is used with organic cotton for all cushion batting. 

Unlike standard furniture adhesives, Greener Lifestyles uses water-based versions that don’t omit VOCs.  Customize to your own tastes by selecting from organic wool, hemp or recycled polyester in a variety of colors.
