Sustainably Chic

by NRD Design Studio

Shortlisted: Living Space - Europe Award

The International Design & Architecture Awards 2026

Sustainably Chic by NRD Design Studio, led by Natasha Rocca Devine, blends mid-century modern design with sustainability. The project uses eco-friendly materials from COSENTINO, Cucine Lube, SONAS Bathrooms, and upcycled furniture, highlighting Natasha’s commitment to local, ethical collaborations. Each space has been thoughtfully designed to balance style, impact, and environmental responsibility, proving that smaller projects can have a meaningful, far-reaching influence.

The home unites earthy tones, luxurious textures, and cohesive details such as brushed gold fixtures and curved joinery to create calmness and a boutique-hotel atmosphere. Every room was designed for both aesthetic and emotional harmony, offering comfort and adaptability for quiet moments or family gatherings alike.

Sustainability guided every decision. NRD Design Studio selected COSENTINO’s carbon-neutral and recycled surfaces, partnered with Irish suppliers such as Matt Britton, and incorporated SONAS Bathrooms’ water-saving fixtures. Vintage and heirloom pieces were reused and reupholstered, reflecting an appreciation for legacy and craftsmanship while reducing waste.

Natasha’s design philosophy extends beyond materials. She supports local and global ethical brands including Cucine Lube Ireland, Silk Prestige, Matt Britton, and COSENTINO. Her philanthropic work with Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project and The Big Idea demonstrates her commitment to inspiring the next generation to design responsibly.

Sustainably Chic has gained recognition through LIFE magazine in the Irish Independent, Ireland’s Homes Interiors & Living, and further press and media coverage. A digital campaign throughout 2025 will continue to promote sustainable design across Ireland and internationally.
