Green Décor In Bend, Oregon

by Shelly

zola.gifA Bend business is couching hoe décor in environmental terms by offering furniture made from materials that are organic, sustainable or recycled.

So John Byfield and Kate Heber created Zola. They know that some conventional furniture can contain high levels of toxic chemicals. So Zola’s materials have no harsh dyes and don’t emit toxic gases, called off-gassing. The products are aimed at the growing number of Central Oregonians moving toward green living and environmentally sustainable practices.

Zolas products aren’t cheap because organic and natural goods cost more. Items range frtom $1,595 for a chair to upward of $70,000 for a full living room set. But, hopefully sales volumes will drop the pricing in the future.
