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.

Back to Basics

Most of us would agree our lives could do with a little less clutter. Focusing on this point, we look at design in this vein – furniture and products that honour simplicity.

These clever little modular elements are simple in form, clean boxes that come in classic colours, but they’re also perfect for keeping a space clutter free. Being available in various widths, depths and lengths means whatever the space, they will fit to suit.

With home entertaining becoming more and more popular, the design of the kitchen is crucial. As they say, appliances should ‘provide assistance,’ not pose another challenge. This minimalist design is just that – functionally simple and intuitive, and slipping into the space quietly.
