Fabio del Percio, an Italian upholsterer has launched Hey*, a brand new range of furniture made from Icelandic hay.
Using hay is nothing new – it’s been used in furniture for many years, but Fabio del Percio has updated it in his new contemporary series by allowing the hay to be the focus of the pieces. Encased in a transparent PVC cover with a zipper, the hay, which comes from Iceland, can breath and stay fresh inside.
Available at e-side, a new concept store focused on cutting edge, sustainable, design-centric furnishings and accessories.

Love the design. For a sustainable future, we have to start thinking about designing products with different inputs. Furniture is usually made from leather and wood. Hay is a great substitute, and in my opinion, looks cooler than ordinary furniture.

Great look! Green (or brown in this case) design is definitely the new in-look these days.
