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.

Constructed from Bamboo Plywood, Factor Design’s latest collection maintains the brand’s distinctive geometric aesthetic and playful use of colour.


The use of sustainable, renewable Bamboo Plywood as the main material for Factor Design’s new range of furniture demonstrates designer Ian Factor’s sensibility to eco-friendly design and eagerness to explore new materials. The slightly retro mood of the pieces is well-suited to the rich wooden finish of the material, showcasing the bespoke, hand-crafted attention to detail Factor Design prides itself on.

“Each piece I design has to engage me emotionally” states Factor, “I have to look at it and feel happy that it exists. My creations need to have a calming effect; from simple, elegant proportions, lack of superfluous detail to a bright splash of colour. Just as important, each of my designs have to be crafted from ethically sourced and sustainable materials.”

Each Factor Design piece is made to order, for further information visit their website
