Up Next SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS There's no question that design professionals and the general public alike increasingly are on the hunt for more sustainable goods and inspiration. In every aspect of life at home and in the workplace as well, sustainable, healthy materials and practices are at the forefront of global conversations about everything from cleaning up the oceans to cleaning up the atmosphere and creating a healthier population and planet in the process. The March/April issue of i+D will dig into the countless ways the design community is not just talking about sustainability and healthy places but also actively developing solutions at the product and project level to affect positive change and contribute to a better future for all. Taking its name from a popular lake area in north central Minnesota, the Nisswa collection of outdoor furniture from Loll Designs features a frame crafted of 100 percent recycled plastic that is paired with durable Sunbrella fabric on the cushions. Options include a sofa, lounge chair, and ottoman that are available in any combination of nine recycled plastic colors for the frame and three Sunbrella cushion fabrics.
