Design Concept of the Day: “The Moss Carpet” by La Chanh Nguyen.
Description:
This bathroom carpet is made of imputrescible foam called plastazote. Each cell welcomes a piece of moss (ball moss, Island moss, forest moss). The humidity of the bathroom and the drops flowing from the body, water the mosses. This vegetable carpet procures a great feeling to your feet.
Wait… Bathroom carpets aren’t supposed to look like that? Excuse me a moment.
