The Life Outside Issue

Introducing the Life Outside issue of Habitus magazine. With life increasingly being absorbed into a digital space, there is never a more important moment to hold something tangible. In this context, the power of nature to have a physiological impact on our sense of wellbeing has never been more important. So how can we cultivate the benefits of the our natural environment in the most intimate of places – our homes? This was the question that helped to bring this issue of Habitus to life.

Habitus Loves… Coffee Tables

We sit down for a cup of coffee with 8 of our favourite coffee tables from across the globe. Let us know some of your favourites in the comments below!

The Campfire Table
		Designed by: Tomek Archer (Tomahawk Studios) Why we love it: Like its namesake this table invites you to gather around, tell stories and enjoy the warmth of others. Warm and fuzzies all round. Beautifully resolved design. Where you can get it: Anibou
Petalo
		Designed by: Charlotte Perriand for Cassina Why we love it: These nesting tables remind us of boomerangs somehow. The Petalo was designed in 1951 but has only recently been produced in a range of colours. Where you can get it: Corporate Culture
Airtable
		Designed by: Lorenzo Damiani Why we love it: We’re not sure how practical this is for, say, the newspaper or anything that’s not tied down, but it’s one of those quirky designs we just can’t resist. Where you can get it: Campeggi
Merci Donald
		Designed by: Elena Cutolo for Glas Itali Why we love it: Cubism gets a revival in this simple geometric table with great nooks for storage – lined in colourful lacquered glass. A bold statement for your living room. Where you can get it: Space Furniture
Hexad
		Designed by: Tomoko Azumi Why we love it: The simple form and solid oak of this table mean it will work in almost any situation. It’s also stackable and, due to its geometric shape, can be configured in a cluster with varying effects. Where you can get it: t.n.a design studio
Crate Series 5
		Designed by: Jasper Morrison for Established & Sons Why we love it: Alluded to with its name, there is something very simple, very tactile about this table. The dovetail joints and short round legs evoke childhood memories of toy boxes and wooden block. Where you can get it: Living Edge
Stobie coffee table
		Designed by: Lex Stobie Why we love it: This table by Aussie-based designer Lex Stobie offers a very Danish feel. Its thin base, glass top and refined detailing give the piece a light aesthetic. Where you can get it: Great Dane Furniture
Sarai Coffee Table
		Designed by: Norman & Quaine Why we love it: The simple steel base and choice of stone, timber, polymer or glass tops makes this one a favourite for the options you have to make it your own. Where you can get it: Norman and Quaine
