IMAGINE A PLASTIC-FREE OFFICE
Ditch the contemporary TVs and computer monitors made of antiseptic plastic and add warmth
and charm to your office with natural hardwood from Swedx. Fusing old-world craftsmanship
with the latest technology, Swedx LCD flat-screen televisions and computer monitors, featuring
electronics by Samsung, are more than faux wood paneling. Available in your choice of wood:
Sapele, a rich, dark wood similar to mahogany; Beech, a honey blonde; and Ash, a very light wood
with dark grain. Select a USB keyboard and mouse (wired or wireless) in matching hardwood to
complete the rustic look. Monitors range from 17 to 46 inches.
Swedx TV or Monitor, $449 and up, 866.595.5289, www.webopolis.com |  |

BAG IT, TAG IT
A friend to the environment, Design Within Reach offers a diversion from
traditional plastic recycling containers. Made of industrial-strength tarpaulin
—a heavy double-wrap fabric that is plastic-coated, waterproof, and easy to
wash—the bags work well as reusable shopping bags and gardening totes. Sold
in sets of four, they’re color-coded and easy to label, making recycling simple
for even the most reluctant environmentalist.
