Moss. It’s not something the average person devotes a great deal of thought to, but there’s something really appealing about carefully controlled moss. I liked the idea of poetry moss on a tumble-down whitewashed wall in my garden-of-the-future and these moss-decorated interiors are pretty nice too:

It is a beautifully unusual idea, and a nice antidote to the staid wallpaper designs and plain walls that most of us endure. I’m not so sure about inviting actual moss into my house though, I can see that getting out of control quickly and turning the house into the garden and the street into my home when my landlord finds out.

The delicate designs are the work of Tokyo-based design studio nendo, whose adorable ethic is:

Giving people a small ” ! ” moment.
There are so many small ” ! ” moments hidden in our everyday.

I love those ! moments. Images from doornob via @katiescott1980
