Taking the ecological problems of the “Furniture” sector into account, the goal has been not only to create ecological interior objects but an ecological material also. During the art project, an ecological, degradable, harmless material, which provokes innovative design forms, has been created from suchrenewable fibrous plants as flax, nettle and hemp (growing naturally in Lithuania) and patented. The pursuit to create products (structural materials and interior eco-objects) from secondary raw
materials, renewable energy sources and ecological and economical elements solves critical problems. While seeking maximal result and analysing separate phenomena of ecological production and realization, the following hypothetical objectives, which were confirmed later on and became the fundamental supporting points in designing furniture from natural fibres, were formulated.
Keywords: biomass, wood furniture, design
