Design Guide: Interior Design Blog and Ideas for Color Trends Style Decorating Tips Events.

"Go green," "reuse," "recycle"... we hear these terms all the time, but one home furnishings design company  and supplier is keeping an eagle-eye on superfluous timber and plywood from Austin-based construction jobs before it can make it's way to the landfill, then they convert the salvaged raw materials into reusable resources.  Simplistic and modest in design, each piece from the Ref-Use Recycled Home Furnishings collection (tables, chairs, and shelving units) comes in only four stains: Smoky Gray, Dirty Brown, Ol' Dirty, and Dirty Red and can be finished out with a coat of formaldehyde-free paint. Now that's taking matters into your own hands.
