Green products go space age this season. Revisit the era of Sputnik-inspired styling—but leave your apron, meatloaf and bomb shelter behind. This is a new kind of mid-century modern. Simple lines and spunky retro designs mix with a new environmental conscience to create a heady, hard-to-deny cocktail. — Angela Heck
Sage in Design Made domestically by Sage in Design from 100% post-industrial and post-consumer recycled plastic, the Gola Alto planter comes in 20 brilliant finishes including burnt orange ($125).
Currey & Company's Brompton mirror erupts into a starburst pattern of reclaimed Filipino mahogany ($370).
Eangee South Pacific alibangbang leaves are dried, hand rubbed to remove chlorophyll and stained with an organic dye by Eangee Filipino free-trade artisans. To create the shade of the Barrel table lamp they carefully cut and assemble the leaves and adhere them to a heat-resistant backing ($159).
Gus Design Group's GT Rocker uses FSC-certified sustainably harvested wood for its seat frame, 50% wool fiber for the brilliant Billiards Clementine cover and steel to construct its legs ($1,095).
Brave Space Design's handcrafted Prism side table/stool uses otherwise discarded triangular walnut strips to form an intricate end-grain pattern. Its finish is water-based and non-toxic ($795).
Thief River Linen The Saidu duvet uses Oeko-Tex certified linen with natural cotton horizontal stripes, 100% linen backing in olive and large antiqued hammered bronze buttons for a naturally casual air from Thief River Linen ($790, queen).
Safavieh This rug from Safavieh's Natural Fibers Collection is hand-woven in India of biodegradable and sustainable jute in a two-tone geometric design ($600, 6x9).
