Sabai Design is a New York-based direct-to-consumer furniture company making sustainable, non-toxic sofas that are actually affordable. Founded in 2019 by Phantila Phataraprasit and Caitlin Ellen, Sabai builds modular, repairable seating from recycled velvet, upcycled poly, recycled water bottles, hemp, and FSC-certified wood - manufactured in High Point, North Carolina. As a Certified B Corporation, Sabai pairs circular programs like 'Repair Don't Replace' and a first-of-its-kind US furniture buyback line (Sabai Revive) with a mission to keep couches out of landfills and make conscious living accessible to a generation that shops its values.
Phantila Phataraprasit
Phantila Phataraprasit is the co-founder and CEO of Sabai Design, a direct-to-consumer sustainable furniture company she launched in 2019 with Caitlin Ellen. Raised in Bangkok around her mother's eco-lodges and trained as a lawyer at NYU, she set out to prove that earth-friendly furniture could also be affordable. Sabai builds made-to-order sofas from recycled fabrics and FSC-certified wood, ships them plastic-free, and pioneered the first closed-loop furniture program in the U.S. - work that earned a Fast Company World Changing Ideas award and made Phantila the youngest member of the Sustainable Furnishings Council board.
