Primary colors get a sophisticated upgrade.
Red, blue and yellow are no longer regulated to a child’s paint palette; instead, they symbolize bold creativity and cheerfulness. Here are a few pieces to incorporate into your next design.
Priya Pillow ($284)
This Buckhead-based brand brings old Indian textile traditions to life in the modern world, such as in this Priya pillow. Made from a cotton and linen blend, it features a twist on traditional chikankari (embroidery) and a practical cotton backing. The 22-inch square pillow is hand embroidered by artisans in New Delhi and Kolkata, and comes with an oversized down pillow insert for a designer look. Wholesale custom orders are available for other sizes.

Vitra Eames Mini Elephant ($145)
Bright, colorful and full of personality, this Eames is a fun way to bring a wink into a room. Originally conceptualized in 1945, the toy was never produced by the designer. Instead, Vitra Design Museum created this 8-inch, 2-pound version as an homage. Molded, sleek and stylish, it is crafted in the style of the Eames Molded Shell Chair.
