Because Fast Furniture Is So Last Season

Because Fast Furniture Is So Last Season

Embrace Vintage Designer Furniture and New Retro Furniture

In the ever-evolving world of interior design, there's a new trend buzzword that's causing quite a stir - and not in a good way. We're talking about "Fast Furniture," the home decor equivalent of fast fashion that's been slowly infiltrating our living spaces. Friends of Curated Interiors know first-hand that our vintage home collection is built with sustainability in mind, and vintage is the ultimate in sustainability. We've been asking ourselves, "How can we bring affordable furniture and decor to our customers while honoring our love of sustainability?" Good news, we finally have the answer! At Curated Interiors, we're taking a stand against this unsustainable practice, and we're excited to introduce you to our solution: the Curated Modern collection.

The Fast Furniture Phenomenon vs. Vintage Designer Furniture

Now, let's address the elephant in the room - Fast Furniture. Just as fast fashion has wreaked havoc on the textile industry, fast furniture is doing the same to our homes and our planet. Many furniture retailers are perpetuating this trend, selling mass-produced items that are almost guaranteed to fall apart or show significant wear within two to three years.

Why do they do this? Simply put, it's about profit. They know that often, consumers don't have an alternative. But at Curated Interiors, we believe you deserve better - like our high-quality vintage designer furniture and new retro furniture options.

The impact of fast furniture goes beyond just your wallet. According to the New York Times, this trend is contributing significantly to clogged landfills, exacerbating environmental issues we're already struggling to address.

Our Commitment to Quality and Sustainability: Mid-Century Modern and Beyond

At Curated Interiors, we've always been big believers in sustainability and timeless quality. It's why we love vintage pieces, especially mid-century modern furniture - they come from a time when craftsmanship, not shareholder earnings, was the focus of furniture manufacturers.

But we also understand that while one-of-a-kind vintage mid-century modern designer furniture pieces bring an eye-catching punctuation and added charm to your home's design, furnishing an entire room with them isn't always practical or possible.

That's where Curated Modern comes in. We've partnered with manufacturers who make it their mission to design products that not only look incredible in your home but also offer increased lifespan and durability. And we've made sure these new retro furniture pieces are available at approachable prices with free shipping, proving that you don't have to break the bank to furnish your home responsibly.

We get it - life changes, and so do your furniture needs. Maybe you've just moved to the Lexington area, and your old furniture doesn't quite fit your new space. Perhaps your daughter is begging for a bedroom refresh for her sweet 16, or your son is ready to move off campus. You might be converting that au pair suite into a short-term rental, or maybe you're just tired of that living room design that's been hanging around since before the pandemic.

Whatever your furniture needs are, Curated Interiors has you covered. We're offering solutions that stay true to our roots of sustainable sourcing, high-quality design, and approachable pricing - from vintage designer furniture to new retro furniture.
