Green Children’s Furniture by Roebuck Studio
October 20th 2008 by Dr.MOZ in Furniture, Green Business, Home
If you’ve purchased children’s furniture in recent years, chances are good that you were forced to choose a piece that was (a) sturdy but slightly ugly, or (b) cute and completely plastic. Thanks to this green business, you can have style and American-made quality without sacrificing the environment along the way!
Roebuck Studio of Michigan uses water based interior wall paints and baltic birch plywood which uses less glue than standard engineered wood materials. One thing that they do have in common with the IKEA-type warehouse stores, Roebuck Studio’s furniture also arrives flat in a box ready for easy assembly! You might also be interested to know that most of their pieces are available in a variety of colors, clear finish, or a combination of both. I’m loving the half-clear and half-painted style seen in the pieces above…and there’s something particularly appealing about that storage box isn’t there?
Have fun and stay healthy,
