Listen: furniture of the future

Helping the planet is typically associated with reducing, reusing and recycling. But, did you know you can be just as kind to the planet from your sofa as long as it’s a sustainable one!

Household appliances, waste and general amenities usually are what Brits focus on when it comes to being eco-conscious at home, but it can often come with a higher price tag.

So, from decorations to dining tables, do we think more about the cost or the planet?

When making purchases for living spaces, 53% of Brits think the cost is the most important factor, followed by durability (31%) and aesthetics (27%). Only 13% view sustainability as the number one consideration, according to research by HEAL’S.

Aston spoke to sustainable architecture and interiors design expert Oliver Heath.
