Designer Mama Tablecloth By Pani Jurek

Posted on May 3, 2012 by rabbit38

The Polish designer Pani Jurek seems prefer to design interactive objects. several weeks ago, design blogs were raving about her Maria S.C. test tube chandelier, now she bring her new project - Designer Mama tablecloth.

Once in place, like in child’s fairy tale world, a small morden home, the George Nelson clock, the Eames storage unit, Thorsten Van Elton antler rack…That’s really a funky little cubby idea for a mama. For the flip side of the tablecloth, our smart designer made all the knots into some simple and pretty tiny rosettes surrounded. Awesome!
