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.

Aperitivo with Aperol

A vast improvement on the six-o’clock-swill, the aperitivo is a chance to chat, nibble, and enjoy a tasty drink.

Aperol, Italy’s favourite aperitivo (a term for both the occasion and the libation) a sort of  Australian debut at an afternoon function hosted by Nield Avenue restaurant. Guests at the launch were plied with aperitivo classics such as Spritz, Americano, Bellini, Mimosa and the all-conquering Negroni, accompanied by Nield Avenue’s delectable mediterranean appetizers, a combination guaranteed to garner lifetime-devotees.

The century-old beverage has long been a staple for northern Italians seeking a light, refreshing drink to wash down a few stuzzichini and stimulate the appetite before dinner. Today it has spread south down the boot and north, east and west into Austria, Germany and Belgium, and is particularly favoured by parsimonious students choosing between paying for dinner or a cocktail (the accompanying nibblies are free!). With a gentle 11% alcohol content and effervescent, bitter-sweet flavour, Aperol is sure to slot right into our hot summer afternoons (or cozy, indoor winter ones).
