The Healthy Home: Fresh Finds for a Sustainable Year
Published on February 19, 2026
In 2026, choose eco-conscious products for your home, such as low-odour paint, forest-inspired wallpaper and an energy-efficient lamp. See our fresh selections below!
All Fired Up
Napoleon’s Elevation X electric fireplace has an LCD screen that displays ultrahigh-quality video of glowing logs and flickering flames to give the look of a wood or gas fireplace. Plus, it delivers cosy heat and crackling sounds — all without emissions, venting or a gas line.
Retro Revival
Originally released in the 1970s as the EC-127, the popular Eames Molded Plastic dining chair by Herman Miller is back with an eco-conscious update — it’s now made with 99% postindustrial recycled plastic. For a clean, minimalist look, check out the newly available unupholstered version.
Spray Away
The Everywhere mist by Lohn can be used on your clothes, linens and body for an instant refresh. Developed by co-founders Katerina Juskey (pictured, left) and Victoria Mierzwa, the mists are delicately scented, phthalate free and come in travel-friendly, reusable and recyclable bottles.
Flora & Fauna
Forest animals and foliage come to life on Boråstapeter’s Under the Elder Tree wallpaper, crafted with FSC-certified materials. The Swedish brand has its own water treatment facility, and its production is powered by renewable energy.
Saved by the Bell
A dome shade and high-gloss finish define the Tom Dixon Bell lamp, but there’s more than meets the eye. The lamp is wireless and has a rechargeable, energy-efficient LED light with a nine-hour battery life.
Fresh Paint
Loathe the smell of newly painted walls? Benjamin Moore’s Eco Spec interior paint is low-odour — any trace of scent disappears in under an hour. Each can is zero-VOC, Green Seal certified and allergy-friendly, and more than 3,500 colours are available.
