Never Felt Better
There’s something about thick industrial felt that is both primitive and modern at the same time. And few designers do industrial felt better than the team at ParkHaus. They’ve created their entire line around this durable material with several very kid friendly applications.

I’m all for the reusable ‘happy birthday’ banner below. Also offered are holiday greetings and sets to spell out Junior’s name.
The cut-out play sets are light weight and easily portable in their own drawstring bags: sea life, farm animals, jungle beasties, transportation and numbers.
While their felt boxes could be used for numerous applications, personally I think they’d make swell toy bins (with no sharp corners to knock into!)
Below:
A playful donut shaped seat/ottoman and coordinating rug’s flexible design allow them to work in a nursery, a teen’s room or the living room.
And check out their modern take on the door stop, preventing Junior from locking himself in the bathroom.

I’m such a sucker for all things felted! When in Nuremberg last, I was oohing and aahing over the bunny egg cozies at the Rosenthal shop but didn’t know they were from ParkHaus. I resisted (at least temporarily!) even though they did inspire me to hard boil some eggs later that week. Maybe if I eat enough eggs, I’ll invest. Great find, Grand Poobah!
