Design for children at Maison et Objet 2011

Anne Claire Petit - Small Stool

Nonah! - Table Aldabra

I just found these interesting suggestions for your child's room presented at Maison et Objet:

 Anne Claire Petit's Small Stool is made of cotton and polypropylene and is far less fragile than it appears - you can clean it without fear of spoiling.




















Aldabra table is equipped with sliding trays that conceal two compartments for storing treasures and pencils. Made from wood from managed forests and treated with a biodegradable oil it suits all requirements for eco-design.

wgsn-homebuildlife.com: Fluorescents: In contrast to the subdued colour palette’s of the last season, day glo colours dominate tableware and soft accessories at Maison&Objet this year.

One of the most beautiful rugs collection at this year's Maison et Objet

can be seen at the Nanimarquina booth Hall 8 F36. Its name is Losanges collection by Studio Bouroullec.

We have always been captivated by the traditional Persian rug, especially by the very old kilim savoir-faire which we see as a delicate mix of rusticity and fineness. We have been lucky to see this project carried through by the craftsmen of Northern Pakistan who managed to skillfully combine thirte

en colors through the geometrical rhombus shape. As well as being crafted by hand, the Afghan wool is also spun by hand, which allows for some unique color tones to be highlighted. This subtly random technique makes each lozenge slightly different and each rug, a unique piece.

 Have a look and enjoy!
