The New Look of Wood

Furniture designers are calling it Raw, Recycled, Reclaimed, Rustic, Unfinished, or even Organic.  The new trend in non-stained naturally crafted wood pieces is everywhere you look these days. 

The natural patina plays well with the eco-friendly organic approach to design that was once only associated with food. 

Now, home design is reducing the carbon footprint with eco-fabrics, -area rugs, - insulation, - flooring, - and almost anything else you can think of.
