H&M Home Collection Spring 2012: White Rustic

by Katja Presnal on January 16, 2012

H&M home collection photos

I featured the bold colors from H&M’s spring home collection a few days ago, and exactly how all the bolder colors are like directly from Pantone’s 2012 color picks, so are the more neutral colors in the H&M’s rustic collection.

This part of the H&M home collection includes vintage style products like in previous H&M home collections, and this time lovely pillows, bedding and kitchen accessories that could be directly not from Stockholm – but from USA or Paris.

Here are some of my favorite products from the rustic collection, and I do love the color scheme in these a lot, great for apartment living and to be matched with white.

Pulu Oil Lamp by Katriina Nuutinen

by Katja Presnal on January 15, 2012

Pulu Oil Lamp by Katriina Nuutinen

I adore the simplicity of the Pulu oil lamp designed by Finnish Katriina Nuutinen.

Katriina Nuutinen is a recent graduate from the Applied Art and Design department in The University of Art and Design Helsinki, Finland. She has mainly focused her work on ceramic and glass, but works with other materials as well, like metals and wood. Katriina did part of her studies in Sweden at Konstfack, University College of Arts, Crafts and Design and she received two nominations from MUOTO2011-gala, Talent 2011, Readers choice and she received the MUOTO2011-stipend. MUOTO rewards the best of incoming Finnish design, and I think Katriina already has made her mark on Finnish design.

I hope to see the Pulu oil lamp in retails soon.
