House Industries Decor: Ampersands & More

Half of this blogging duo works in graphic design so our affinity for all things typography is understandable. But we've discovered that many other folks, with no relation to the field of graphic design, really enjoy adding typographic accents to their home, as well. House Industries is a noteworthy type foundry with a hankering for translating their type onto objects and accessories for the home. Follow the jump to see more items from their store...

I'm in love with the aesthetic of the ampersand, but I cannot for the life of me justify spending 100$ on the shape. Just seems a bit ridiculous to me.
