Naturally Sustainable Style - by Selina Lake (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

In Naturally Sustainable Style, interiors stylist and author Selina Lake reveals how to create a beautiful and stylish home that is kind to the planet, using organic materials and preloved items.

In Inspirations, Selina starts by revealing the concepts that inspire her: natural decor, living simply, mindful consumption, recycling, upcycling, and reducing plastic waste. She looks at materials suited to the naturally sustainable look, including wood, bamboo, cork, recycled glass, and upcycled materials. In Textures, she focuses on organic fabrics, fibers such as coir and rattan, and eco-friendly paints. Finally, she shows how to style the home using lighting, decorative objects, vintage pieces, garden flowers, and house plants. In the second section, Natural Living Spaces, Selina shows how sustainability and style can go hand in hand in living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices, and even laundry rooms. In Natural Outdoor Spaces, she steps outside to discuss green gardening, growing your own produce, and venturing further afield to camp, travel and explore. Throughout, eco-friendly tips and hints will inspire those who want to lighten their footprint on the planet. Last but not least, Selina's list of resources will help readers get the look and create a sustainable, eco-friendly home of their own.
