Sustainable Santa Fe

Tracy Bulla -- Home Accents Today, 1/1/2007

The thriving Southwestern art mecca provides the inspiration for this vibrantly earthy look. Equal parts rusticated and sophisticated, masculine and feminine, the sum total pays tribute to craftsmanship, beauty and the artisan way of life. Rustic wood looks, rich patinas, eco-heavy designs and an emphasis on pottery are balanced against a blazing landscape of fiery, earthen hues.

PILLOWS Rich hues and herringbone motifs lend a posh, current sensibility to Daniel Stuart Studio's jacquard sweater knit pillows in a lush cotton blend.

TABLE Eco furniture designer Pedro Petry created this one-of-a-kind, rough-hewn table for Moderna by Roberta Schilling out of discarded slabs of wood for a chic take on cocktail.

SCONCE Giving a nod to local Georgia O'Keefe, shaped metal horns lend a primitive feel to Art Dreams Home's striking candle sconce.

RUG Inspired by traditional Southwestern designs, Surya's flat-woven reversible rug is fashioned of pure wool with a special herbal wash ($199, 5×8).

BOWL Emily Pearlman's squared stoneware bowl draws inspiration from pottery as an art form with a textured line motif and sea green glaze ($78).

LAMP Kirei, a sustainable forest product made from discarded sorghum stalks, forms the base of Artisans' Eco Collection table lamp and defines the distinctive shape further with a burlap shade ($450).

MIRROR Part of Roma Moulding's Florentine Mirror Collection, the artisan-crafted design features hand-applied honey stains with a beeswax finish to give the appearance of naturally aged wood ($249).

POTS The Dijon glazed clay garden pots from Anamese present an almost wood-like surface, while the organic form derives from bamboo ($89 to $259).

CONSOLE Showcasing a rubbed red patina, The Phillips Collection's aged wooden console glows with the richly varied aura of a desert sunset ($3,000).

TABLETOP From Homart, the Jasmine Tea set approaches ceramic design with a craftsmanlike perspective of purity and simplicity ($46).

THROW Copper and cayenne warm up the modernized plaid throw from Textillery Weavers ($255 to $300).
