Unique textiles

Lately I’ve been really into the industrial beauty of prints from Fokus Fabrik. The fabrics are made from organic hemp and cotton. The designers are Scandinavian– what a surprise.

Pillow Talk

Nerdy? Yes.

Typography? Yes.

Simple black and white? Yes.

Minimal, but with a statement? Yes.

An aesthetically-pleasing group of three? Yes.

These pillows from Etsy user diffractionfiber have pretty much all the elements that I would be interested in having on my couch (if I owned a couch, that is).
