I like it because it looks very clean.

Um, is it just me or does this emperor seem to be pantless?

That happens here sometimes. I guess that's the nature of design.

Are these commercial displays or an actual home?

If a home, it's a bit too much of "logo in your face" for my taste.

Also am not a fan of big signs in homes saying 'Eat" or "Meditate," or in this case, "Let's Make Love" over the bed.

binxie, yes he's pantless.

What's going on with the sudden influx of posts/advertisements? I just started noticing this a couple of days ago and I find it kind of obnoxious. Am I the only one?

Gekko and MollyBB,

Just to clear up any confusion: I simply snapped photos of the display from Maison de Vacances at the last Salon Maison et Objet, which has a nice selection of simple bedding that I thought some people would enjoy seeing. And they had some of their posters up above the bed that I didn't think to crop out of the photos. That's all. No advertisements here.

Kristin, I was actually referring to the Calypso PR comment above, not the feature itself. My mistake for calling it a post instead of a comment. But thank you for explaining!
