COOLAWOOLA is a brand created by Lena MAJEWSKA when she was working on new projects and noticed that issues of recycling and responsible design were becoming increasingly important to her. A ‘coolawoola’ thus became a method of design. A coolawoola is a soft, warm jacket in which one can wrap oneself up and it is made from wool which has been recycled, sewn and combined with an inventive style of design.

HAYKA Design Store
Gosia and Marcin Dziembaj are couple forming a creative collective. They search for inspiration in everyday, ordinary situations and problems. Their designs have gained recognition in Poland and abroad.
The HAYKA bedlinen is a design that had its premiere during Wroclove Design Festival 2013 as a finalist of the contest “Design Open Space”.
So far the hay and straw prints on the Hayka bedlinen have surprised with realism and delighted with naturalness. Field insects have been hiding among printed ears and blades of cut grass, and obviously mice have been capering around. Now thanks to the use of the technology of augmented reality, the realism of the Hayka bedlinen acquires a completely new meaning. Thanks to a special application using the technology of augmented reality, we can see how a mouse printed on the bedlinen becomes alive.
