More original and comfortable than the simple cake, here is the “chair duvet”. It also has the merit of making any seat with four legs and a backrest desirable. This new decorative accessory was designed by Pepi de Boissieu and Nat Sly, founders of the Barcelona design studio Dora daar, who produce limited series of poetic objects.
It is in this spirit that they imagined Nube (“cloud” in Spanish), a cotton duvet filled with wadding and held together by fabric ties around the edges of any chair or armchair. We will choose it in plain white organic cotton, with the air of a giant pillow or, in the Nube Casamance version, made in a cotton fabric traditionally used in Senegal to swaddle newborns, decorated with patterns made with colored wool by a community of Senegalese embroiderers (thirteen different models are available).
The duo is also working on an outdoor version in terry cloth to bring extra soul and softness to the old wrought iron garden chair or the ungrateful plastic armchair.
