Living in the Environment Issue

Issue 62 is the first issue of the year and always a great time to put our best foot forward. With Adam Goodrum, the loveliest man in design, as Guest Editor, we draw on his insights as a furniture designer, artist and educator to look at the makers shaping our design world. Sustainability has never been more important, and increasingly this is a consideration from the start with projects designed to address their immediate environment as well as the longevity of the planet. From the coldest winters to the most tropical of summers, addressing how we live in the environment is crucial to creating the perfect home.

Celebrating the Launch of Sensa Granite and the Growth of the Dekton xGloss Family

Cosentino celebrated the launch of the newest additions to the Dekton xGloss family and the unveiling of Sensa Granite with a special collaboration with Gelato Messina, and the announcement of the winners of the 2016 Cosentino Design Challenge.


Unveiling the icy new additions to the Dekton xGloss range with a special collaboration with Gelato Messina, Cosentino shared the new Fiord, Tundra and Glacier natural surfaces at an intimate gathering in their Sydney Showroom. With slabs of each surface decorating the space, guests were able to touch and view the intricate depth of the texture and shine.

Along with the Dekton xGloss range, Cosentino also debuted their new Sensa Granite collection. Just as flawless as their xGloss range, Sensa Granite adds a new texture offering to Cosentino’s collection. With eight colour-ways, Sensa Granite shows off rich colours and texture along with strong and exotic veining. Orinoco’s base is black, but erratic veining of gold, copper, and white enrich its overall appearance, while Colonial White sports flecks of red graining across the white background. Other offerings in the Sensa Granite range include Black Beauty, Glacial Blue, Indian Black, Ice Blue, Moak Black, and Bianco Antico. 

A creative and apt collaboration with Gelato Messina added another element to the celebration, with Gelato Messina custom making gelato flavours to correspond with each of the Sensa Granite, and Dekton xGloss finishes.

On such a festive occasion, Cosentino also announced the winners of their 10th Cosentino Design Challenge, with UTS students Christopher Kerr and Levi Fletcher taking home the crown for their project Dek-ScapeVogue Living editor, and judge on The Block, Neale Whitaker who assessed the entrants commented that, “Of the submissions, Dek-Scape feels the most considered and achievable. I think Dekton has a potential application for public outdoor use and the suggested uses of DEK-SCAPE could easily work in any Australian city. The reference to the Sydney light rail makes it feel timely too.”
