Ikea has introduced a new line of fabrics inspired by Japanese manga and ukiyo-e (and even a little oragami). Called the "Charlotta" line, it's designed by Swedish mangaka Åsa Ekström (interview here). The US site has five patterns on the theme "Japan Meets Scandinavia." I like them all, though the one at right is my favorite. Nothing beats manga's angsty, absurd melodrama. (Plus: Gojira v. Stockholm.)
Also great for tea cozies!
