CAPTION
According to the EPA, Americans dump around TWELVE TONS of furniture into our landfills annually (and this stat is from 2018, so god knows it’s gotten worse since the pandemic). Another stomach-churning fact: US landfills will be FULL by 2036, meaning we’ll have to dig up even more of our precious land to store trash.
Consider the ramifications of your design choices and how they contribute to this atrophy. There are so many well-built, functional, and beautiful pieces in antique and vintage stores waiting to be given new life. And the best part, they’re “ready to wear”, no waiting, no long lead times.
