From imaginative window displays to inventive selections of home goods, jewelry, and clothing, saving the planet has never looked so chic. Owner Jillian Pritchard Cooke founded Wellness Within Your Walls, an international organization bringing healthy product standards to the home furnishings industry. Everything in the store, from Cisco Brothers upholstery to Indian textiles, meets WWYW standards. 26 East Andrews Drive

EcoHome Atlanta
Opened last fall by Lawton Hall, EcoHome Atlanta offers organic and sustainable linens, gifts, pet accessories, and kitchen and personal care products. Nursery items and baby gifts are particular specialties. Exclusive lines include Living Fresh organic bedding and Serving Slabs repurposed from granite counter tops. Hall, who had a long career at AmericasMart, also has a background in energy conservation and historic preservation. 3261 Roswell Road

EcoDenizen
Located in the base of a high-rise at 999 Peachtree, this five-year-old shop is only a half block away from the Midtown MARTA station. The owners have LEED credentials and stock a carefully curated selection, including many local brands like Mark Edge jewelry and Houston Llew art tiles. Though the store is mostly dedicated to gifts, it also carries home and gourmet food lines such as Blackberry Patch condiments. 999 Peachtree Street
