The 3R's (reduce, reuse and recycle) has played a crucial role in the eco-friendly design of the Greenhaven Craft Room. The students and faculty from the Furnishing and Interiors program at the University of Georgia used a blend of repurposed and/or new and sustainable materials to create the modern craft room. The space showcases the innovative use existing and new materials to create a unique and highly functional work space. The intricate details, such as flowers made of recycled wallpaper samples, give the space a vibrant personality while demonstrating the beauty and ease in designing green.

Inspired by the Eero Saarinen Tulip Chair (1956) in white and orange, the streamline design of the room emphasizes that organization and cleanliness is possible within a work space that lends itself to a wide variety of tasks. The versatile components of the space, including varying work surfaces and ample storage options also contribute to the flexibility of the space. Infusions of bold color amongst a neutral palette and wall space for display or inspiration provide an opportunity for individualization or evolution in design.

Creative and thoughtful use of materials and a lively atmosphere result in a unique craft room that highlights the limitless possibilities of eco friendly design. The student designers on this project are no longer asking why design green instead designing green is the future of design.
