The Green Design 100
Call it responsibility or accountability. Or simple popular demand. The rarefied world of design is embracing the environment as never before. Top architects are implementing revolutionary methods. Fashion and furniture mainstays are manufacturing products using sustainable materials. And luxury empires are establishing credos on issues their customers are still waking up to. Behind the scenes, trailblazing executives are taking big risks to make it all happen — beautifully.

Interior designer Jacques Garcia — of Paris' Hôtel Costes fame — is readying the NoMad to reopen this fall, made over in his signature French style and loaded with plenty of eco-conscious features like automatic window shades, organic minibars, high-efficiency bathroom fixtures and a green roof.
