ADRIEN CRASNAULT PHOTOSHOOT FOR COOL-FOUTA

We are so happy to introduce you the amazing art of photographer Adrien Crasnault. Working with Adrien was good like a smooth summer breeze in May. We have learnt a lot from his professional view and his very good practices.

He values the spontaneity and true emotions of his subjects. Originating from France, joining the UK in 1999 Adrien has focused his attention on adapting his self taught photographic skills to this ever so innovative creative industry.

FOUTAS LOVE MEDITATION

1 Comment

Probably most of us have been thinking about the possible benefits of meditation, maybe wondering how much well-being we could achieve just if we try someday. Inner peace is part of our natural state, however it seems as though it’s never the right time to start experimenting with meditation. Now more and more people are deciding to stop everything by taking a ten minute break to breath quietly and familiarize themselves with the present moment. Sounds good?

There are several publications that prove your thoughts and your mind alter your physiology. What happens in your mind literally changes your body. I am convinced having watched a TED Talk “All it takes is 10 mindful minutes” (by Andy Puddicombe) at the well documented post 4 scientific studies on how meditation can affect your heart, brain and creativity. Have a look also at “A year of Productivity” where you will find a simple guide on Everything you need to start meditating.

If you already have bought a Cool-Fouta, you know how useful they are for all kinds of activities. In particular Foutas are perfect for your yoga and meditation sessions.

Find a quiet space to sit down comfortably. If your space is not quiet enough, no worries, just play some relaxing music to create a more pleasant atmosphere. Close your eyes and just listen to your breath flowing in and out of your nose. Just 10 minutes each day will slowly reconnect you to your spiritual essence rebalancing your heart and mind to give you more energy and harmony in your life.

So, what are you waiting for? Choose your Fouta and start practising your daily 10 minutes of meditation now!

SUMMER HOME DECOR IDEAS

Summer has arrived and we want to offer you some ideas to give a more summery fresh atmosphere to your home or beach house.

Textiles are one of the most common resources for home decor as they offer so many possibilities. In particular Foutas, give us very good results when combining colors and textures. Also you can use them as towels, tablecloths, curtains, bed covers or sofa covers, to make covers for chairs or cushions, hammocks, or whatever it comes to your mind, that’s the purpose of the CoolFouta spirit.

We have found very interesting this post “5 Easy Summer Decor Ideas for Your Home” published by http://freshome.com/
They mention: “Dark and muted tones are perfect for fall and winter, but spring and summer scream for light and airy colours.  Use removable slipcovers, or decorative throws to bring bursts of colour and brightness.” Read all recommendations and trends here and bring the colour to your home this summer!

WHAT IS A FOUTA?

Leave a comment

The Fouta is a traditional Tunisian cloth which was originally designed to cover and dry the body at the Hammam or Turkish bath; it is highly absorbent and soft, gaining in smoothness after every wash. Foutas can be used inside or outside, on the beach as a sarong or beach towel, in a picnic, or in the house as a cover, tablecloth…
