HomeStyle: Mi Pillows

Email thisPosted Jan 12th 2008 at 12:12PM by Sarah J. Gim

Filed under: Haute Home

Was one of our resolutions to make our home a place we want to relax, stay in on a Friday night, hang out? The Los Angeles Times and Daily Candy think Designer Michaela Scherrer's Mi Pillows might be a good thing with which to start. The pillows are inspired by nature and made of everything from scraps of vintage French linen to Italian leather, and feature laser cut designs. The soft colors alone like rose, sage, cocoa, silver, and white are relaxing enough, but Mi Pillows are also partially filled with lavender buds, giving them a soothing scent.

Make electronic trash into something n+ew

The notion of making trash into furniture may not be appealing at first, but take a look at Rodrigo Alonso's n+ew (no more electronic waste) "stool-sculpture-installation"s and you might change your mind. Made from e-waste (electronic waste, ranging from keyboards to various wires and cords) held in epoxy resin and aluminum, these stools are the perfect addition to any geek's sitting room. The cluttered look of the mess inside is a nice contrast to the sleek shape of the piece itself.

Check out the rest of Alonso's website for more interesting designs. I'm terribly fond of the B + W dishes.
