Kids Rooms: David Fussenegger Blankets

From Julie:

The perfect go-with for the modern kids bed: lightweight, cheerful, fleecy blankets from family-owned (established in 1832) Austrian company David Fussenegger.

Architect Visit: Delson or Sherman

From Julie:

Founded by Yale School of Architecture classmates Jeff Sherman and Perla Delson, this Brooklyn-based firm is especially good with kids’ spaces. They also have a charmingly modest approach: “We are inspired by the belief that good architecture makes life better—by improving interaction between people, by creating more beautiful environments, and by making daily existence more graceful.” Go to delsonsherman.com to see more of their work.
