Call it responsibility or accountability. Or simple popular demand. The rarefied world of design is embracing the environment as never before. Top architects are implementing revolutionary methods. Fashion and furniture mainstays are manufacturing products using sustainable materials. And luxury empires are establishing credos on issues their customers are still waking up to. Behind the scenes, trailblazing executives are taking big risks to make it all happen — beautifully.
Pottery Barn is redecorating, in green. The company's environmentally minded renovation includes its catalogs, packaging and naturally sourced products like this mirror, which is framed by bark harvested sustainably from flowering cherry trees.
