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.

About me:
 
Inspired by sea creature, statuesque and poised, with tentacles like legs that support the top. With an effortless and minimal look, where the thin stands, apparently posed in a casual way, oppose themselves to the rigour of the round top.
