Jonathan Stockton Sunset Furniture Newick East Sussex England
First to recommend
Description
Jonathan Stockton's Sunset Furniture Collection is incredibly stylish with eco-creds to boot: hand made in England from Teak, FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified Oak or reclaimed FSC certified Teak. The nature of the design utilises the maximum yeald from each consignment of timber - so as not to see timber wasted. Particularly loving the high back bench, a shape that is making quite a splash in the UK. (via My Urban Garden Deco Guide)

Speaking of reusing, deconstruction is where it is at! They come and tear your house down, take everything that is worth anything... you pay for them to tear it down, but you get a tax rebate and major good kharma! (via Land+Living)

Forests Forever
First to recommend
Description
Too often designers, but also individual buyers alike, tend to simply overlook where the timber for construction or furniture comes from. Timber in itself, and when sourced properly, hits all the right spots with green requirements.

Not only they look and feel great but they are German, and in Europe (at least) you can rest assured that Germans and Dutch are pulling their stocks to research and implement environmentally friendly products and production systems as well as architecture and construction... the UK and US could learn more from them!

Don't pass on the grass, man... giant grass, as in bamboo, grows really fast making it a wonderfully sustainable material. And it makes really cool looking trays, bowls, and stools to name just a few. (via Land + Living)

About LandLiving:
Land+Living is a webzine created by a rag-tag band of design conscious individuals scattered across the globe from Los Angeles to Western Europe. We believe the connection people have with the environment and that good design affects the quality of life both through function and aesthetic pleasure. Land+Living was co-founded and is co-edited by software developer/freelance action-sports photographer Anthony Barbatto and interdisciplinary designer James Lippincott. The team is rounded out by designer/designBOT editor Adriean Koleric, architectural designer Lorenza Casini, architectural designer Nicolas Marques, and designer/marketeer Anne Robert.
