This chic kitchen is, believe it or not, totally eco: the wheatboard cabinets are a straw-based alternative to off-gassing particleboard; the backsplash is recycled glass tiles; the base cabinets sport sustainable walnut veneers; the countertops are earth-friendly Caeserstone, and the flooring is natural stone.
