Newly launched site Re:Modern is a fantastic resource for “design with integrity.” Search by designer or theme to find furniture, accessories, and gifts that--believe us--will fit your aesthetic, budget, and conscience. A large portion of Re:Modern’s M.O. is to highlight emerging designers, so that your home will be filled with novel stuff, and so will your wallet. The best part, of course, is that they’re “striving to make responsible, green products the norm rather than the exception.” With items by designers like Christopher Douglas and Stefane Barbeau, you won’t be disappointed...
Take Squat, designed by Duane Smith for Vessel ($395), for example, a multi-purpose furniture module that can be used as shelving, a bench, or a table. Each module includes one birch plywood top and natural aluminum legs. Easily transform it into a cozy bench using the Flop folding cushions ($48). They even include a section of "Tips for a Greener Home." Plus, a portion of all net profits goes towards causes in support of the arts, community, and environment.
