Conscious Choices: Our Favourite Eco-friendly Interior Ideas

It’s said that what’s inside matters the most; the same goes for your house. In terms of your
interior design, choosing more sustainable and eco-friendly options is not only a trend now
but also a conscious decision made by thousands of homeowners across the world.

Sustainable interior design generally denotes eco-friendly decor and make, using materials
that help improve the air quality while impacting the environment as little as possible.

We are all for eco-friendly, biophilic interiors! Not only do they add a touch of pizzazz to your
home but also double as a woke choice.

Now, let us show you some of our favourite elements.

  1. Plants as Decorations
    When we talk of eco-friendly homes, the image that first pops in our mind is that of plants
    and food for good reason. Adding greens to your space can improve the oxygen supply and
    get rid of harmful chemicals from the air you breathe. They double on the beauty front too,
    enhancing the ambience and adding a touch of freshness to your abode. So, bringing a little
    piece (or a big one!) of the outdoors into the indoors is always a great idea.

Imagine this: the refreshing smell of mint or pine in the air…who needs artificial air
fresheners?

  1. KonMari Method or Minimalism For The Win
    If you, like us, are fascinated by the KonMari Method, creating a sustainable space for an
    eco-friendly living experience must be on your list. KonMari is the conscious practice of
    simplifying, sorting out, and decluttering your life. It also offers a shift in perspective from
    hoarding to being mindful of your possessions. Gravitating towards a minimal lifestyle also
    mirrors the simplistic and clean aesthetic that is key in modern design.
  1. Go For Furniture Built From Natural Materials
    Under this category, the first and the most obvious rule is “forget plastic”! Instead, for your
    chairs, tables, and just about any other piece of furniture, turn towards natural wood (make
    sure to check for certification), bamboo, recycled materials, etc. For counter and tabletops, a
    luxurious yet nature-friendly touch can be added with marble and other stones.

Remember that particleboard and medium-density fibreboard (made with compressed
shaving and sawdust) are glued together using synthetic glues and resins containing
formaldehyde. This compound is an allergen to humans and carcinogenic to animals and
should be avoided.

  1. Don’t Forget Eco-Friendly Flooring
    The flooring is probably something that gets overlooked in many eco-friendly homes. But to
    be a true-blue loyalist to green living, you should opt for stone or wood materials. Chuck
    vinyl flooring out the door, and go for cement, wood, cork, or Limestone tiles. Avoid using
    vinyl (or PVC) as it is made of toxic plastic.
  1. Biophilic Interior Design Is a Big YES
    Biophilia is becoming increasingly popular among design enthusiasts and professionals
    alike. It’s the concept of having nature-inspired interiors which goes beyond simple
    aesthetics. Importantly, biophilic designs have a significant positive impact on our well-being
    too. A fundamental part of an ideal biophilic design is to highlight the openness of a space.
    This also creates safe spaces or refuges in homes where you can retire to read, work, or
    meditate. Another important rule here is to let as much light in as possible.
