Topping the list of our eco-urban luxe collaboration is Cisco Home, an eco furniture designer; todosomething, artisans with a purpose; a new outdoor lifestyle line, HOM Escape in Style by Cisco Brothers; and LED HD flat screens from LG. To organize the space we incorporated The Container Store’s sustainable selections, Royal-Pedic’s organic mattress, LED custom light fixture with IOS LED 6W bulbs and Union Eighteen’s floor coverings made from recycled carpet remnants. Also featured in our urban sanctuary is Animavi’s new concept in refined, urban lounging, as well as exterior foliage design by Inner Gardens. You’ll find these and countless other uncommon offerings in this sanctuary amidst the clouds. Witness, our branding partner, developed the brand concept for this eco-luxe, urban home- VINE+GREEN.

You’re a busy mom, yet you want to feed your baby the most nutritious, natural organic foods possible. Well, your savior has arrived! Denise Henderson has made your job a little bit easier by creating Square One Organics. Offering unblended, healthy super foods containing only organic fruits, vegetables, grains, and water, Square One Organics are organized into four color coded groups making it easy to know where the vitamins and minerals reside. Most importantly, Square One Organics are free of pesticides and harmful chemicals, have no added sugar, and are gluten and GMO free. They are even served in #5 recyclable polypropylene plastic food containers that do not contain Bisphenol-A (BPA). BPA containing plastics have been shown to leach carcinogens and/or endocrine disruptors.

 

I was fortunate to catch up with Denise for a brief interview. Listen to learn more about her and the impetus behind her starting and growing Square One Organics!

Sometimes called "vegetable ivory," Tagua nuts have been used for centuries by the South American people to carve all sorts of fashion accessories and other useful items, including buttons, necklaces, chess pieces, pipes, and more. Lately, these sustainable alternatives to gems have been used in making fashionable mainstream jewelry. Few use them more creatively than the Palma Collection. After the seeds fall from the trees along the coast of South America, they are collected, polished, cut, drilled, and dyed. The result is beautiful, brightly colored jewelry that is eco-conscious, affordible, eclectic, and one of a kind. Recently, Jaszy had an interview with the Palma Collection CEO Alvaro Toledo about the creative process and the future of fashionable jewelry.
