CONCEPT STORES

ECO AGE








Founded by Nicola Giuggioli, with help from his sister Livia and her actor hubbie Colin Firth, Chiswick's green-minded lifestyle shop was opened to prove that ecologically sound items can also look fantastic. It's a hotspot for all things green; from sustainably sourced designer homewares, ecological paints by earthBorn, wallpaper by the likes of Graham & Brown. There are plenty of surprises here - who'd have thought a blanket or a towel could be made from bamboo? But if you've only a few quid to spare, pencils made from recycled CD cases are just £2 and Maison Belle cleaning fluid starts at £3.95. The basement design consultancy advises amateur eco warriors.
