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.

The Committee Toy Car

This toy car seems quite innocent, with its oversized handle for pushing
around the floor and its traditional craftsmanship – using timber and
steel – but when you look closer it reveals something much more
sinister.

The Committee toy car, designed by Brad Denboer for the Auditorium Toy Co., shows a birds-eye-view of suited people with one slumped forward, hands behind his back. In the ‘boot’ there are a number of items, including a rope, shovel, tape recorder and wrench.

 

 

 

We’ll leave the rest up to your imagination. We’re unclear if this toy is meant for kids, or big kids, but either way it is a beautifully crafted design that is definitely worthy of a mention.

 

 

It’s got a limited edition of just 25, with each individually numbered with a small metal plate – so it’s unlikely there are many left – but you can track down Denboer here and we’re sure he’ll be able to suggest something else that’s in the pipeline.

However, you can definitely purchase one of the Auditorium Toy Co.’s other items, the Boattail Racer, made using high-quality wheels and polished ply, all beautifully boxed. Click here to place your order.
