West Elm

Sustainable Furniture, Home Decor & Lighting

At West Elm, we use design to do better—for the earth, our communities and you. Today, 60% of our product sales support at least one of our sustainability initiatives, and we’re doing more every day.

We believe in great design, from around the corner to around the globe. That means supporting the people behind your products with ethical production, worker well-being and economic impact.

From our Brooklyn studios, our in-house team designs exclusive collections you won’t find anywhere else.

95% of our products are designed in-house.

We collaborate with artisan collectives around the world to help preserve their handcraft traditions and create opportunities for sustainable employment, especially in rural areas.

We were the first-ever home retailer to join Fair Trade USA, ensuring workers fair wages, healthy working conditions and community development.
