This Month's Curios Box Delivers Examples of Trendsetting Sustainability

May 14, 2019

Green design is one of the hottest trends that has been growing in spaces both old and new, and bringing nature inside has never looked better with what awaits in this month's Curios Box. Vibrant living walls, sustainably certified interiors and eco-friendly products that use recycled materials continue to be the ways in which companies exercise their green thumbs.

Do you consider yourself a trendsetter? Or, are you one who likes to wait it out to see if the newest craze will last or fizzle fast? Trends have an undeniable place in interior commercial design – some like velvet and jewel tones re-emerge, while others like biophilia and sustainable materials have slowly gained traction and are now in full force.

All trends have one thing in common – they set out to re-inspire our creativity and push the boundaries of what a space can look and feel like. Green design is one trend that has been growing in spaces both old and new, and bringing nature inside has never looked better. Vibrant living walls, sustainably certified interiors and eco-friendly products that use recycled materials continue to be the ways in which companies exercise their green thumbs. You’ll find more green examples in the samples we’ve provided in this box.
