PETA’s pal Moby once told Quartz<\/a><\/em> that a leather couch makes him think of Christian Bale in American Psycho<\/em><\/a> or a bad recording studio in 1985. If you haven’t seen American Psycho<\/em>, well, trust me: It’s creepy and disturbing\u2014just like a sofa made from animal skins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, it’s easy to choose vegan interior design by finding stylish and sturdy vegan furniture, made from microfibers or otfobher vegan fabrics. Making Kind Choices<\/em><\/a> by PETA President Ingrid Newkirk<\/a> includes a chapter called “Kindness by Design: Creating and Furnishing a Humane Home.” It contains helpful tips for people who want a leather-free home that reflects their compassionate values as well as their sense of style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, if you care about animals, you’ll want to avoid leather and suede, along with wool<\/a>, silk<\/a>, and down<\/a> (not to mention animal trophy heads, unless you want to be mistaken for Walter Palmer). Luckily, many furniture brands offer animal-free options. After hearing from PETA, home goods retailer Povison Furniture<\/a> confirmed that it\u2019s down-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t forget dining! Not only does Von Holzhausen<\/a> make beautiful bags, they have also extended their humane designs into the dining room. Its stylish and modern touch will look great in your home and make you feel great, too. Designs are water-resistant, stain-resistant, scratch-resistant, animal-free, and lightweight, and they have a low carbon footprint. Get elegance and style without cruelty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
