As a follow-up to my recent piece on carbon fiber for RL Magazine, here are a few lines of copy on carbon fiber, plus 10 items that show the breadth with which the material is currently being used in items for the home.

Taking a narrative approach, we go something like this. You return from work and set down the Ralph Lauren media case above ($695).

You then step through your Biometric scanner door, $15,000:

You put on some music with your Paul Stet stereo speakers:

Which of course require a $200 audiophile wall plate:

Next you draw a hot bath in this model by Corcel:

Though I prefer this floating version, especially as it comes with someone already in it:

Either way you’ll need a matching bath mat:

Next it’s time for a bite to eat with these chopsticks, $149:

Carbon-Fiber-Chopsticks

Followed by a cigar from your Porsche humidor, $2,999:

And then finally this (we are talking fiber, after all):

Carbon-Fiber-Toilet-Seat

 There’s plenty more carbon fiber for the home on this Pinterest page.
