Hemp
Hemp Furniture - Bed and Sheets
Hemp is an ancient textile with a lot of versatility. Hemp fiber is the most durable and eco-sensible crop on the planet. It can be spun into threads for making rope, twine, and cords, and it can be woven into clothing, fabrics, and linens. An example of hemp furniture:

Hemp is grown without chemical pesticides or toxic fertilizers, and it produces more fiber yield per acre than any other crop. One acre of hemp can produce as much usable fiber as 4 acres of trees or two acres of cotton (and it is stronger than cotton). Many green furniture companies are using this fabric for many of their furniture fabrics.
Faux Leather
When it comes to animals, eco-friendly companies are just as friendly to animals as they are to the natural environment. Leather products are completely avoided and microfiber and faux leather substitutes (though pleather is not entirely free of controversy) are used instead.
Leather products are symptomatic of pollution and animal cruelty. U. S. factory farms are the biggest pollutant of American waterways, and animals are subjected to all types of cruelty (confinement, branding, tail docking, horn removal, hormone and antibiotic injections, repeated breeding).

Mid Century Modern Furniture - Tables from recycled wood
Eco-Friendly
Modern furniture designers of the past replaced decorative excesses like ruffles, tassels, and body carvings with form and function. While simple designs with practical advantages drove the modern furniture of yesteryear, simplicity and practicality have an added meaning for many of today’s modern furniture companies: furniture that simply makes practical use of the earth’s resources.

People are more aware of the environment today than ever before. They want to know what materials are used in the furniture they buy - and where the materials come from.
New Design of Modern Furniture
What is the newest trend for contemporary modern furniture stores? The vast majority of them are green. No, they’re not jealous of what the other has in its store – they’re all eco‑friendly. These eco-minded stores carry products that are designed with the environment in mind. Their furnishings are made with reclaimed, recycled, renewable, whole body organic, and non-toxic materials. Bathroom showers, kitchen cabinets, living room floors: all can be made from sustianable or recycled materials
Most of these stores are located in California, Oregon, Colorado, and Washington State. Sure, eco‑friendly modern contemporary furniture stores are scattered throughout the United States – Michele Fitzpatrick’s Chicago showroom Verde[1] is known for its refurbished mid‑century modern pieces, and Brooklyn-based Vivavi[2] was named “one of the 50 most intriguing green businesses helping to drive the green revolution” by Inc. Magazine[3] – but, for the most part, these green stores are on the left side of the Missouri River.
