How Are You Cushions Changes the Perceptions of Traditional Pillows

— November 18, 2012 — Art & Design
How Are You cushions changes the perception of how pillows should be made.

The striking pieces are part of a collection called 'Making Hard Things Soft' that toys with the perception of what is cozy and tactile in traditional soft furnishings. The pieces featured here include Plywood and Concrete.

The Swedish design duo Tobias Johansson and Emelie Ronnebro are known for their slick, minimalist works which play with concepts of traditional design. The cushions can be ordered through the company website, but hurry as some of the designs have already sold out.

These smart designs would complement a modern warehouse loft perfectly. Just imagine these pillows thrown across a couch or bed, mimicking the surrounding space.
