New Goodies from 2KH

It's been awhile since we've checked in on 2KH, and they've added some really good-looking stuff. One of our favorite sustainable retailers, who we featured some time ago, sell their goods through their online store and their brick-n-mortar location in NYC's West Chelsea neighborhood; the store itself is notable for incorporating refurbished concrete floors, custom-designed modular fixtures fashioned from reclaimed wood, innovative wood composites, eco-friendly resins energy-efficient lighting and low-VOC paints and adhesives. It's great to see a business walking the walk with such a TreeHugger-friendly style as well; we like the looks of these tabletop trays. The Circles of Bamboo Tray (left) is handcrafted from small circles of our favorite grass; the exotic, sustainable and beautiful Palm Wood Oval Tray works well for serving fruit and bread, or on its own as a decorative piece (remember, palm wood can be a good alternative to exotic rainforest hardwoods, as the trees are harvested after they stop bearing coconuts). Both are available online; if you happen through the neighborhood, swing by and check 'em out in person at the corner of Tenth Avenue and 17th Street. ::2KH
