The "Home Sweet Home" design was created by Alexander Girard in 1952 in conjunction with an exhibition at his Textiles & Objects shop in New York. The pleasantly firm embroidered cushion made of high-quality twill has a colourful inscription and provides a modern touch for any sofa thanks to the colour and material. The duck half down filling provides homeliness and ensures great comfort and cosiness.

Infinite are man’s expressions of beauty and love; open your eyes your ears and your heart to them and you will unite the peoples of the world. - Alexander Girard.

The architect and designer Alexander Girard was one of the leading figures in American design during the postwar era. His passion for colours, patterns and textures found expression in the field of textile design, which was a focal part of his oeuvre. In his work, Girard paired motifs from folk art sources with abstract patterns. Many of his figures and patterns exude a cheery playfulness, and thanks to their vivid colours, even his simplest graphic motifs possess a high degree of differentiation.
