IMHO, Diesel’s Liftestyle collection – the home textile and furniture & lighting range – has led a secluded existence. If my information is correct, the “home collection” is 6 months old – and I haven’t yet seen it everywhere! The furniture is manufactured in collaboration with Moroso, lighting with Zucchi. There are some really nice pieces in the Successful Living design. I particularly fancy this cool stool and the lovely-coloured textile below.

At the moment, the Swedish Residence magazine is holding a vote on whether to love or hate the Diesel Nebula Nine sofa, below. This stone-washed linen sofa is “soft like a large cloud”! I couldn’t say I love it, so I reluctantly pressed hate. At the time of my vote, there were 90 participants: 79 % for love, 21 % hating. And oh, there’s a great comment to it: “The sofa looks like an unmade bed.” It surely looks inviting for a nap. Would you?
