Issue 62

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.

Habitus Loves… Sleeping

It’s been a big week, why not have a lie down. We get comfy on 8 of our favourite beds.

Loop Bed
		Designed by:Leif Jorgensen for Hay Why we love it: This simple platform bed is made from ‘sectional iron’ – a leftover from manufacturing processes. The simple form means you can dress it however the mood takes you. Where you can get it: Corporate Culture
Dream
		Designed by: Marcel Wanders Why we love it: Dream offers a whole system for sleeping, including the fabric-upholstered bed, headboard panels and night tables. Indulgent and the kind of bed you just can’t wait to get into. Where you can get it: Poliform
Spillo
		Designed by: Pianca Why we love it: This gloss-lacquered wooden bed is pure white poetry. Subtly curved legs juxtapose with the thin architectural headboard – beautiful. Where you can get it: Milano Furniture
YODA
		Designed by: Kenneth Cobonpue Why we love it: Carrying on the tradition of the popular YODA chair, the YODA bed features a forest of rattan vines at the head of the bed. There are also outdoor versions! Where you can get it: KE-ZU
Caravan Crib
		Designed by: Kalon Studios Why we love it: Beautiful beds aren’t just for adults. This American-made crib uses sustainable materials and meets the highest standards for safety. It comes with bars in a number of different colours and with adjustable mattress height. Where you can get it: Kalon Studios
Lipla
		Designed by: Jean-Marie Massaud for Porro Why we love it: The geometry of this bed and its ‘folded’ bedhead make for a clean-lined modern statement for the bedroom, and with the black base the white bed appears to float. Where you can get it: Space Furniture
Leila
		Designed by:N Garnham/ R Carlson Why we love it: This understated design would be at home in any bedroom and offers a removable fabric cover. You’ll also sleep easy knowing that the frame is made from sustainable kiln-dried hardwood timber and CFC-free foam cushioning. It’s also got great storage in the base. Where you can get it: Jardan
SOFA CUADRADO
		Designed by: Na Xemena Why we love it: Take it outside… although we’re heading into autumn, there still seems to be a bit of heat around, so taking a nap in the backyard or by the pool would be easy with this outdoor daybed. Where you can get it: Parterre
