SMALL SWITCHES. BETTER EVERYDAYS.
Practical sustainable living without preaching, greenwashing, or sacrificing good design.
WHAT WE USE & WHY
We believe in complete transparency. Here is our exact material selection criteria for each category in the House of Aesthetics catalog:
Single-Source Pure Copper
Copper is an infinitely recyclable element that naturally mineralizes still drinking water. A single copper bottle eliminates over 1,400 single-use plastic bottles across its lifespan while gaining a distinctive patina with age.
Sustainably Harvested Bamboo
Moso bamboo grows up to 90cm a day and reaches full timber density in 3-5 years without chemical pesticides or clear-cutting soils. Finished only with non-toxic natural plant oils and natural cork pads.
18/8 Vacuum Stainless Steel
Food-grade double-wall insulated steel retains temperature for 18+ hours, preventing thermal transfer and condensation while ending the need for takeaway coffee cups.
Renewable Plant Soy Wax
Unlike petroleum paraffin candles, our soy wax burns clean and slow with lead-free cotton wicks. The ceramic vessel is designed to be kept forever as a desk organizer or planter.
Our Zero-Plastic Packaging Promise
When your House of Aesthetics package arrives on your doorstep, every single element is plastic-free. We use unbleached recycled kraft paper boxes, water-activated paper tape, cornstarch padding, and soy inks.
