Find stylish, sustainably designed home furnishings at the tres eco-chic m boutique

Carmen Spagnola is enamoured with the letter m, the emblem she chose for her newly minted West Vancouver boutique that embodies all things eco-chic. Why m? She was inspired by a momentous occasion – the birth of daughter Mirabella, whose name means “wondrously beautiful life,” she says.

After Mirabella was born, Spagnola committed to eating organic foods and switching to organic cosmetics, cleaners and clothing. But when it came to finding stylish, sustainably designed items for her home, she found few options and decided to open m.

“All of our eco-friendly home furnishings come from carefully considered sources and vendors who share our values,” Spagnola says. Vinyl-free wallpaper from Mod Green Pod, Nature Girl organic skincare products, mouth-blown recycled glass barware from Esque, luxurious bamboo towels by Vancouver’s own Shoo-Foo, and biodegradable and chemical-free housekeeping items are just some of the planet-friendly items that can be found in her store.

Spagnola has also recently launched m’s own line of locally made wood furniture (dining tables, bed frames and dressers, with more to come), fashioned from sustainably forested wood and low-VOC materials.
