Warming up for Autumn

Veronique Vanden Avenne

While waiting for Vancouver Interior Design Show 2011, IDSWest, to start with a big party tonight, I like to remember my visit in Spring at I Saloni 2011, in Milan where I met Veronique…. a talented, smart, gracious and beautiful lady who, together with her husband, runs Casalis, a Belgian based hand produced design carpets company, famous for their high end contemporary style.
At I Saloni they presented a new collection of pouffes called Slumber, designed by Aleksandra Gaca, made of Kid Mohair, covering a  highly flexible shape, so it contours your body and springs back when you get up. I find these pieces perfect for the Autumn at our doors.

They presented also their new collection Bonnet outdoor and Bonnet indoor designed by Liset Vander Scheer. A great idea of a knitted, removable and very simple to clean cover for pouffes.

Bonnet and Slumber are also coordinated with beautiful throws and can be chosen in complementary colors or contrasting ones.

A great palette of colors to choose from, from neutral to vibrant and they complement the Casalis carpet collection perfectly!

I found this collection extremely appealing, versatile and oh! so comfortable.

This is a wonderful look...functional and fashionable! The weaves are almost sculptural. (love her jacket as well!)
