PORTLAND, OREGON -- Sue Augustyn Interior Design (SAID), a full-service design studio and retail showroom, today announced the launch of its new exclusive line of hemp bedding. The duvet covers (available in full/queen and king sizes) feature a simple, custom design and a clean look for the bedroom, all made from environmentally friendly fibers. The bedding is complemented by a line of hemp roman shades.
"Our customers are looking for specially designed products that are also good for the planet," said Sue Augustyn, principal of SAID. "Hemp provided the perfect canvas for creating our new line of bedding. By coupling this crisp, 'green' fabric with subtle design touches, anyone can create a room where they can actually feel good about going to sleep at night."
Hemp is a fast growing crop with a high fiber yield that doesn't require the use of pesticides. It also is beneficial to the soil as it suppresses weed growth, replenishes the earth with nutrients and nitrogen, controls the erosion of topsoil and actually can clean up toxins from the ground itself. In addition to its outstanding environmental benefits, hemp is strong, durable and resistant to mold and ultraviolet light.
SAID has fashioned the duvet covers with grosgrain ribbon in chocolate brown, green or rust, along with a charming stylized bird motif that was created by Augustyn's artist son. Because each piece is made to order at the company's workshop in Portland, each order can be customized to the client's request. The duvet covers are sold with two euro shams (full/queen for $565 and king for $585) are available in the store, located in Portland's historic Multnomah Village, or online at the company's Web site at www.saidinteriordesign.com. Also available are the hemp roman shades, which vary in price based on size.
