Brazilian born, Barcelona based designer and technologist, Bianca Cheng Costanzo, was inspired by the origami patterns she did as a child. That inspiration led her to explore turning those 3D patterns into a wool blanket called bloom.

bloom takes the idea from paper and utilizes a soft cashmere wool to create a geometric, three-dimensional blanket that not only looks good, but will keep you warm, too. Even though wool is soft, it still maintains the structure of an origami pattern.

This wool blanket looks so cozy and warm. Warm images of snuggling with it on my chase chair with a good book flow into mind.
