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.

Bunky by Marc Newson

The latest kid-friendly design from Magis, by Marc Newson.

World-renowned, award-winning Australian designer, Marc Newson, unveiled his latest design for ever-funky brand Magis at Milan design week 2011.

The rotation-moulded polyethylene ‘Bunky’ is a children’s bunk bed, designed for sleep and play. It has no sharp edges and a smooth finish to make for a very safe sleeping solution for the kids.

It’s great to see Newson turning his hand to such varied and interesting projects – a Qantas plane seat one day, a stovetop the next and now this.

 

 

The Bunky features a cool ladder for reaching the top bunk and also comes in a single bed version.

Hopefully we’ll be seeing it in the Region soon!
