Pillow Talk

One of the most fun, but at times challanging people to design for are young Bachelors. They want a home that is warm and inviting but not frilly or too soft. Usually when I interview a bachelor their main requests are:
1. HUGE TV
2. A comfortable place to sit
3. No frilly,  girlie pillows
(Oh and did I mention a Huge TV?)

The TV and seating areas are no brainers, but for  the past few years I have been on the look out for fun decorative pillows with a masculine tone.  I have used everything from wool to burlap trying to accomplish this task.  Very luckily a designer based out of  San Fransisco has cut out the leg-work and created these silk screened cotton blend pillows with a ton of personality.                                                                                                                                                                   

These pillow range in size and they also come in a array of wonderful colors. They are made to order, which is great because it gives you a ton of flexibility when designing. They can stand on their own as a singular piece on a bed or chair or in groupings on a sofa. However you chose to use them, they are sure to look amazing.
