From Plastic to Soul: Rethinking Home Décor

In today’s world, our homes are often filled with plastic-based décor and furniture, items designed for convenience, but not for our health or our planet. Recent studies have revealed just how deeply plastics have infiltrated our lives.

A 2024 study published in PLOS One found that adults inhale around 68,000 microplastic particles every day, many small enough to travel deep into lung tissue. Other research has detected microplastics in human blood, lungs, kidneys, liver, and even the brain. These invisible fragments are not only an environmental crisis, they have become a personal one, raising concerns for long-term human health.

At Faranam Art de Luxe, we believe our homes should be sources of comfort, vitality, and meaning, not hidden harm. That’s why we create décor using natural materials, avoiding plastics entirely. With Persian roots and a Canadian vision, our creative hub in Tehran preserves centuries-old craftsmanship, while our Canadian headquarters embraces modern technology to scale production sustainably.

This balance, artistry with innovation, heritage with modernity, allows us to deliver handmade décor that restores color, soul, and authenticity to homes everywhere. Each piece is finished by artisans, ensuring the human touch remains at the heart of what we do.

Because a home filled with life and beauty should never come at the cost of health.
