Especially sensitivity to consumption. We know that it is difficult to achieve this in the visual bombardment of fashion, trend, social media trends, which we are constantly exposed to. Instead of resisting innovation, we want to share with you some tips of sensitive, environmentalist decoration changes.
- Do you know what you bought?
We can start with making the first rule of thinking about the adventures of even the smallest piece we get before we make a purchase decision. What material is this product made of? Where did these materials come from? How did he have a responsible understanding of nature and people in his production? Nowadays, making all these inquiries has become possible for many products with technology. When we approach you with such a responsible glance that we decided to buy to renew our decoration, we will not only do a favor to our planet. We also support manufacturers and suppliers who feel responsible for the world and people.
- High quality and expensive or less quality and cheap?
We know that some trends and colors in fashion and decoration are seasonal and temporary. We know that some trends and colors in fashion and decoration are seasonal and temporary. Sometimes trends are endless durable with product quality and visual. As a British proverb says, "don't be rich enough to buy cheap products." Be sure to decide to buy infinite quality, durable products instead of having a product which is easy to damage and outdated decoration styles. Remember the product life in price-performance comparison.
- Renew instead of buying.
You have decided to change your decoration, but is it really necessary to buy the patterned chair that you like so much? Take a look at your armchair which have been standing there for years, can it be transformed into something else by renewing its paint and changing its polish? Rather than buying it, it is not only economical but also spiritual pleasure to transform the goods by changing the paint, cover and handles. Making a table from an old sewing machine treadle, turning an unused teapot into a flower pot, giving the doors of your kitchen cabinets a brand new look. Take a closer look at what you have and you will see how many opportunities there are. Concepts that re-enter our lives, such as second-hand product markets, exchanging what is needed, are a good way to protect and share nature.
What is its raw material?
Products made from recycled or which is better recycled raw materials are much more responsible for maintaining the balance of nature. Unpainted or less painted wood products, naturally textured fabrics such as cotton, linen without polyester, and sustainable materials as glass and metal are environmentally friendly raw materials that can be preferred in furniture or lighting. Of course, the geography where the material comes from as much as its content is important. For instance, when we choose a table made of Indonesian oak just because it is a color trend, we will not make a sensitive choice. Local producers, artists, local products should be the first choice if possible.
- Reduce your energy use with soft touches.
Choosing environmentally friendly products in electronics and white goods, replacing bulbs with led or energy saving bulbs, plan your home's plan to maximize daylight, to use the brightness more accurately, determine the paint color in the rooms accordingly, by choosing products that are easy to clean, reducing the use of water, cleaning materials, small touches that everyone can easily apply... These touches will cause major changes for both your budget and the environment.
It is in our hands to create a pleasant atmosphere by making discreet choices in the world of consumption we live in. The steps of environmental decoration will make you feel as if you are doing the right thing for your own health, our planet and future generations.
