Urban Country Designs Green Services

To you, preparing for company means kicking dirty laundry under the bed, lighting a candle to mask the cat smell, and dimming the lights in hopes no one will notice your hideous design scheme (shabby chic meets Persian palace).

Pathetic.

It’s time to give Urban Country Designs a ring. The beloved shop now offers green interior design services, so you can get your pad looking good while being ecofriendly.

They’ll work with you on anything from simple projects (like selecting a few accessories and final touches for a small area) to the more involved (like overhauling the entire joint) — all while employing earth-conscious practices.

Dining room looking drab? They’ll point you toward furniture made with sustainably harvested wood. Want to liven up your tiny entrance? They may suggest low-VOC paint rather than toxic wallpaper. Bedroom decor keeping you awake? They’ll find organic linens that’ll give you sweet dreams.

Your place will look so great, you’ll be asking everyone to come see it.

With the lights on.
