Inspired and informed by the legendary interior designer's work on the Miller House, for which Girard produced a number of famous embroidered works, the Vitra Home Sweet Home Embroidered Pillow is a luxuriously comfortable cushion that works just as well as a piece of decorative art. Impactful and full of history, the Vitra Home Sweet Home Embroidered Pillow is a subtle statement piece that will breathe a sense of life into any home space.
