No matter how advanced our society and technology is, we can not forget our origins. Sometimes we need something green surrounding us. Of course, the best idea is to spend some time in the field, but is not always possible, so all that remains is probably bringing a little nature to your home instead.
Let’s take a look at some great creative green ideas.

3. The Garden Furniture
The Garden Furniture project came about through an interest in making sculpture that uses both permanent and ephemeral materials, altering a static piece of furniture by covering it in living, growing grass. (Designer: Kevin Hunt)
4. Grow Up Cup

5. Living Moss Bath Mat
Constructed of a decay-resistant foam called plastazote, this bath mat is a nursery for three varieties of living moss: ball mass, island moss and forest moss. The humidity of the bathroom and the drops flowing from the body, water the mosses. Great feeling to your feet are guaranteed! (Designer: Nguyen La Chanh)
6. One Pot, Two Lives

7. Growing Chair
Now you can sit on your favorite tree! The chair resides on a rolling planter with willow trees growing from each leg. Russian vine wraps around the willow branches for a full greenery effect. (Designer: Michel Bussien)

9. Growing Jewelry
The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life. (Designer: Hafsteinn Juliusson)
10. Grass-On Green Lamp
This lamp is made entirely of recycled materials, including the synthetic grass, and completely recyclable. (Designer: ITILabDesign)
11. Umbrella Stand
This rather elegant new age umbrella stand uses rainwater from your umbrella to feed thirsty grass and adds a fun spot of green to your foyer. (Designer: Simon Enever)
12. Business Card
A self-initiated project to create a business card that people would keep on their desks and not in a drawer. By following the instructions correctly a decent bloom would have been seen within a week. (Designer: Jamie Wieck )
13. Organic Clock
The clock is powered by a safe chemical reaction between mud and metal electrodes, displaying the time without the need for additional power sources. (Designers: Francesco Castiglione Morelli & Tommaso Ceschi)
14. A Wearable Planter
Why should your plants stay at home? They help clean the air you breathe, are beautiful, and create a wonderful conversation starter. Carry a sprout, a succulent, or a flower you found on your morning walk. (Designer: Colleen Jordan)
