YOLO YELLOW Upcycled Cushions | 60 × 40 cm
Mix & match! Get 10% off when buying 3 or more YOLO YELLOW cushions. Because one is lovely, but three are even better.
A little yellow. Plenty of colour. And two sides worth showing.
Meet YOLO YELLOW, a small collection of reversible Moroccan cushions, personally combined during our October 2026 sourcing trip in Marrakech.
A textured, patterned front brings together mustard yellow, turquoise, blue, lilac, burgundy and peach, with little touches of red, green and cream.
Turn it around and the look changes completely: a light, creamy striped kilim, with fine lines of yellow, purple, green, red and darker tones.
The colours connect the two textiles, while the different patterns and textures give each side its own character.

TWO SIDES, TWO DIFFERENT LOOKS
The textured side is full of colour and irregular geometric details. Depending on where the original textile was cut, some cushions show more turquoise and blue, others more peach, burgundy, lilac or mustard yellow.
The striped kilim brings a lighter look, with a creamy background and colourful lines running through the weave.
Choose Mix for a patterned front and striped reverse, or Stripes for kilim on both sides. There is just one cushion in the double-sided striped version.
We love showing the different sides together: a colourful patterned cushion beside a quieter striped one. Or simply turn your cushion around whenever you fancy a change.
Sold separately, beautiful together.
PERSONALLY COMBINED, HANDMADE IN MARRAKECH
Choosing the textiles is one of our founder’s favourite parts of creating our custom cushion collections.
A beautiful piece catches her eye. Another textile is laid beside it. Colours are compared, fabrics turned around, and a possible front and reverse start to take shape.
For YOLO YELLOW, the creamy striped kilim brings a lovely contrast to the richer, textured pattern. Small lines of colour pick up shades from the front without repeating the whole design.
The textiles were selected through Simo and transformed into cushion covers by our trusted maâlem Ayoub in Marrakech.
Two existing textiles, brought together in a small series of seven cushions.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Professional textile cleaning recommended.
Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as the repurposed textiles may contain different fibres and respond differently to washing.
For small marks, gently dab with a soft cloth and a little cold water, testing an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking or rubbing.
Do not pull on loose threads or raised fibres. Protect from prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve the colours.
HANDMADE CHARACTER
Each YOLO YELLOW cushion is individually made from repurposed Moroccan textiles.
Colour distribution, geometric details and stripe placement vary according to the section of textile used. The Mix cushions can therefore look quite different from one another, while belonging to the same collection.
Irregular weaving, uneven textures and small signs of previous use are part of the original fabrics’ character.
The photographs show examples from the collection; the exact arrangement of colours and patterns may differ from cushion to cushion.
Show the colours. Turn to the stripes. Enjoy both.
