Cardboard box bedding

Dutch by Design, an online store for contemporary interior accessories from the Netherlands, recently announced a new product this autumn, the Home Duvet. The duvet is printed with a cardboard box pattern to raise awareness of homelessness, and 30% of gross profits from the sale will go to Centrepoint,a charity for homeless young people aged 16-25.




A representative says, "Although this is partly a charitable effort, we’re not letting that compromise the quality of product we’re supplying. The cotton has a thread count of 144 threads per square inch, so it feels soft to the touch. It’s long lasting, easy to clean and is virtually non-iron. We’ve taken care to source an ethical product, too: the duvet cover is produced in Pakistan and child labour is not used."
