Rest Your Head on a Girard

Alexander Girard alphabet pillows.

Girard Pillow

UPDATE -- There are sale pillows for $40 each. I got white on natural and it looks beautiful in my living room. More tan than the greyish shown on the site.

Thanks Christian.

You can see a few other Girard designs using type as texture at this flash exhibit from Herman Miller. It looks like there may have been a backwards uncials companion to the alphabet pillows of this post.

lovely - but 72 bucks seems like a lot for a pillow . . . even house industries is cheaper than that!
