Cut A Rug
London artist and designer Sonya Winner (pictured), has expanded her Lichen rug collection with Malachite, a new colorway of deep greens, vibrant jade and a touch of blue. Lichen rugs, created in collaboration with Alice Hislop, are hand-tufted by artisanal weavers in biodegradable New Zealand wool. Durable and washable, the rug is beautiful underfoot or displayed as a wall hanging.
Spinning A Good Yarn
Kravet has partnered with environmental community Seaqual Initiative and InsideOut Performance Fabrics to create 56 durable indoor-outdoor fabrics made with plastic litter that’s been collected from beaches. The plastics are turned into pellets that are then melted into threads for Seaqual yarn, a mix of upcycled marine plastic and post-consumer PET from land sources.
Kid’s Stuff
Perfect for children’s rooms, Child’s Garden is a whimsical capsule collection of PVC-free, FSC-certified wallpapers from House of Hackney. Debuting Artesania, a new floral painted by Kerry Simmons, plus a new palette for C.F.A. Voysey’s Alice in Wonderland print, the collection also includes classic patterns such as Dinosauria, Hollyhocks, Stratus and more.
In A New Light
Featuring an illuminated square pocket within a circular wooden housing, Pillar is the newest modular lighting collection from Stickbulb. The handcrafted line includes tubular pendants and surface-mounts, circular sconces and a linear chandelier. The wood used for Pillar fixtures is pin oak from fallen and felled trees across NYC, supplemented with American oak. Shop two fabulous lights below!
