We’ve seen rugs that let you cruise through the cosmos
Hey hey stargazers and celestial daydreamers: Here’s your chance to walk barefoot above the heavens. Spacecrafted is a new collection of rugs from German designer Jan Kath that takes hi-res satellite images of the great beyond and turn them into super detailed wool and silk patterns.
Most geeks I know play their video games in the living room. But even if you play in your room or don’t play games at all, I think you’d agree that every living room needs a rug. That’s where Etsy artist Harmonden comes in.
Harmonden makes 8-bit crocheted rugs of notable characters from video games (like the one above that features Link from Legend of Zelda) and of other gaming-related stuff, like console controllers and other game elements. You can check more of them out in the gallery below.
The rugs are priced from $20 to $45(USD) and are available for purchase from Harmonden’s Etsy shop.
