Earth Day may be just one day a year, but as our climate continues to suffer, it’s important to wake up every day with Mother Earth top of mind. And recycling alone isn’t going to cut it, so it’s time we reevaluate all the decisions we make in our lives—starting at home. You’ve likely started making a few eco-friendly swaps—like switching from single-use plastic bags to reusable silicone ones or opting for natural cleaning brands that offer plastic-free refills—but with so many sustainable home furniture and decor brands to shop from online, you can make your footprint even smaller.
Whether you’re buying a couch, patio furniture, throw pillows or rugs, it’s easier than ever to purchase thoughtfully made home items from brands that care just as much about the environment and the people who make them as they do about style. From Buffy’s dreamy eucalyptus bedding basics to Goodee, an online marketplace (available at Nordstrom) of artisan home goods any design junkie would approve of, there are more chic and sustainable home brands to shop straight from your computer than ever before.
Ahead, check out the best sustainable home brands whose mission is to make environmentally and ethically conscious products that’ll elevate your home’s design and comfort while making Mother Nature smile.

Boll & Branch
Sheets are one thing you shouldn’t skimp on, so since you’re going to be investing in them anyways, you might as well ensure they’re made sustainably. Boll & Branch is the gold standard of high quality linens as their products are made with 100 percent organic cotton and through ethical production. The fabric of these particular sheets are stonewashed, which produces a lived-in, ultra-soft finish. In other words, you won’t want to get out of bed. They’ve also got bathroom towels, a mattress, and other bedding you’ll want to check out too.
Pom Pom at Home
Add some romantic flair to your space with one of Pom Pom at Home’s elegant home accents—from textured pillows to cozy throws. The brand uses 100 percent natural linen—which comes from the flax plant and requires less fertilizer and water than other bedding materials—as their main fiber. On top of that, linen is the longest lasting plant fiber, so you wont need to repurchase items frequently.
Goodee
Goodee is a Black-owned online marketplace that sells ethically made products that look like they came straight out of the Museum of Modern Art. If it’s sold at Goodee, it’s made to last. Nordstrom recently started carrying a selection of items from the online store, so it sounds like you’re about to go on a planet-friendly shopping spree.
Coyuchi
This Earth Month, Coyuchi challenged themselves to think about how they’ve made a positive impact in the textile industry over the last 30 years—from organic farming to following the strictest certifications. The brand’s line of artisan-crafted, organic bedding, apparel, and other home goods are fair trade certified and the materials look just as good as they feel.
Buffy
Buffy basically broke the internet when they first launched their fluffy duvet made with cooling eucalyptus—so it’s perfect for summer. They’ve since expanded with sheets, duvet covers, and pillows in soothing colors to help you create the sustainable bed of your dreams.
West Elm
ICYMI, West Elm has a collection of sustainably sourced items for just about every room in your home. You can shop for everything from stylish patio furniture and sleek beds to on-trend decor and pillows that are FSC-certified—meaning they help support forest and ecosystems around the world.
Floyd
The direct-to-consumer furniture brand, which you’ve probably seen on your Instagram feed, is rooted in sustainability. The brand actually started as a reaction to the disposable furniture trend—according to their website, furniture waste has grown 2.5 times the rate of household growth since 1960. By 2025, the brand has 5 goals to reach to make an impact on the world, including starting a Floyd reselling program and to ensure that 70 percent of materials come from recycled or renewable resources. You can also shop bundles by room to save money.
The Company Store
Just in time for Earth Day, The Company Store launched the Company Conscious collection, which includes thoughtfully designed bedding basics made with TENCEL—a sustainable fiber gaining popularity for its breathability and softness.
The Little Market
Co-founded by Lauren Conrad and Hannah Skvarla, The Little Market is a nonprofit with a mission to empower women. The products are ethically sourced from women artisans around the world in underserved communities, including refugees, people with disabilities, and young mothers— each purchase helps provide them a stable income and other life-changing resources. You can shop for everything from handwoven baskets to candles and chic kitchen accessories that are one of a kind.
