Californian designer Heather Heron has teamed up with Environment Furniture for an eco-friendly range of accessories and homewares known as Environment by Heather Heron.
The collection, which includes travel bags, hand-dyed scarves, organic throws and beach blankets, oozes California cool. The goodies are made with a range of durable green textiles including organic hemp, repurposed military tents, and an antique Japanese material known as boro.
“Ten years ago while traveling in Japan, I became obsessed with these beautiful textiles called Boro which are indigo dyed hemp that has been mended and repaired,” Ms Heron explained. “The most stunning recycling tradition I had ever seen.“
You can see the beautiful blue boro used as a feature down the center of this weekender bag.
The range also features a surf bag, just the thing for transporting your board to Malibu’s beaches. It’s crafted from reclaimed military canvas tents and hemp rope.
The Environment by Heather Heron range is available online from Heather Heron’s website.
