apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

What Hobbits dream of. We saw Amenity's premier line of bedding over at Design*Sponge, and felt refreshed (sidenote: why does everyone love to use that * thing?).

So much on the web is designy and tech-ed out, that those few that manage to marry earthy goodness with real style deserve awards.

There is not much to be said about Amenity, aside from loving their bedding. Amenity is a collaboration by Nicole Chiala and Kristina de Corpo, who work in Los Angeles, and this is their first gig. Their site says they plan to design more than bedding, and we can't wait to see what they come up with. We called them, but no one answered (we are waiting for pricing and Where?). Probably out hiking. Californians.

This premier collection of duvets and pillow cases are manufactured in California out of 400 thread count cotton and come in three patterns: Twig, Drift and Leaf. Each one is better than the next and the idea is so simple and yet effective it is surprising no one has done it before. While this is clearly a West Coast creation, it's natural style is even more necessary here in the city. Availabe at Nest Interiors, Sublime and eventually at Amenity online (all prices below).
