Now that I’m finally settling into my digs here in Sao Paulo, I’ve been looking around for pieces to spruce up my place and unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of view), there’s no IKEA here to help. But this past weekend while attending ResFest I discovered ALGO and already am making plans on where in my apartment I can put their gorgeous decorative pillows. Members the ALGO collective (who count fashion, photography and animation among their interests) silk-screen leftover fabric with quirky graphics such as lobsters over unique abstract patterns. The result is an irreverent, colorful take on home decor as well as great conversation pieces for a housewarming party — and they probably look great when used as weapons in a pillow fight, too!

The throw pillows come in four sizes, from a round tube ($25) to square at 20 x 20 inches ($50). Since the project is so new, the pillows are only available by e-mailing them or in person at bazaars held at ALGO member Michael Arms. ALGO will soon be expanding their line to include sleeping masks and pillow cases.
