Kvadrat\u2019s Colorful Fabric-Covered Pillows Popped Up Across NYC<\/h1>\n\n\n

This spring, New Yorkers encountered an unusual sight on city streets: ginormous colorful pillows propped on sidewalks and against bollards and buildings, bringing a rare softness to the concrete jungle. The cushions were part of a guerrilla campaign that showcased the NYCxDesign Award\u2013winning Kvadrat Febrik<\/a> fabrics Myr and Mylla: double-jacquard upholstery textiles by Stockholm\u2019s Note Design Studio, knit from polyester yarn derived from plastic bottles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nubby and organically irregular, the surface of Myr evokes the topography of mangrove wetlands or the pitted surface of coral. Mylla is altogether smoother, but both SKUs feature a core of high-bulk filling yarn punctuated with nondirectional stitches. (Myr simply has wider spacing between the stitches, allowing the filling yarn to bulk up and create a voluminous, almost quilted braille-like texture.) From a distance, the fabrics\u2019 saturated yet murky colorways appear solid, but up close the two-tone m\u00e9lange becomes clear. It\u2019s all imperfectly perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
