Bring the outdoors inside with these “stone” cushions. They are not really boulders but soft felt wool cushions. The textile hue and embellishments cleverly mimic the natural color and marbling pattern often seen on real stones and pebbles.

Place two of them to form the back rest and seat of your very own zen chair and meditate away! The cushions are made from 100% merino wool. The designer is South African Ronel Jordaan. She trains her artisans to make them at the women’s workshop in Gauteng- Johannesburg. So not only do you get a great product but will also help the artisans earn their living. The Felt Stone Cushions are available in three sizes which range from $298 - $595. You can purchase them from Vivatera.com.

A few days ago I’ve read an article about how people spend thair lifes, and from that article I’ve came to the conclusion that we must be very careful on how we spend our time, because he never comes back. Just after I’ve finished that article I’ve found this interesting new record …the world’s longest sofa record has been broken on june 7th 2008. I don’t know why a record like this is even recognized. Anyway this title previously held by the danish now belongs to the norwegians. The sofa was constructed in perfect summer conditions in the town of sykkylven. measuring 61.52m in length, it consisted of 41 modules and 210 moulded foam cushions. In the end I don’t even know why some people bother with this kind of records ..but who knows maybe someone can show me the light. - Via

After we presented the Zipper Light and the Zipper Rugs here is another product that uses zippers. Designed by Sternform Produktgestaltung, Ping Collection’s ZipZip is basically a collection of upholstered cushions which come with zippers on all four sides to connect in any configuration you like and can imagine. They’re made of Loden, which is 100% new wool, and come in four colors ranging from light gray to dark sand. A great modular lounging furniture that you can easily transform from bed to chair to couch with just a couple of zips. You have countless possibilities to build nearly every situation of sitting or laying down comfortably are the result, and I’ve got to admit they do look kind of comfy. - Via - Gizmodo
