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.

Ultimate Design Hunter Package: The Prizes

Euroluce, Atollo Medio

The ATOLLO, over the years, has become an iconic table lamp, winning the Compasso d’Oro in 1979 and completely revolutionising the way we imagine the classic bedside lamp. The geometric shapes that compose it – cylinder, cone and hemisphere – have resulted that has become one of the icons of Italian design. Contributed by Euroluce.

Design By Them, Bow Chair by Tom Fereday

Named after its arching slender backrest, the Bow Chair was designed to accentuate the material and crafting of solid timber. Contributed by Design By Them, each transition of the Bow Chair highlights the elegant, natural grain of shaped timber.

Phoenix Tapware, voucher to the value of $3,000

Inspired by innovation and passionate about design since 1989, Phoenix Tapware are market leading pioneers in Australia’s and New Zealand’s bathroom and kitchen industry. For Habitus House of the Year, they’re giving the prize winner a voucher of $3,000 to spend on Phoenix branded collections including showers, taps and accessories.

The Green Room, Vivenne’s Rose Pink Cushion by Vivienne Westwood

The Green Room is a Sydney-based design group founded by creative duo Olly Adam and Maxine Fielding, and is the distributor for The Rug Company in Australia.

Over the past two decades, Olly and Maxine have worked internationally in the art, interior and design industries. The pair have become sought-after advisors and creative collaborators, working across a range of sectors, including fashion, interiors, art & music.

For this year’s prize, The Green Room have contributed a beautiful cushion by acclaimed fashion designer Vivienne Westwood.

Stylecraft, Mantiqueira Vase by Domingos Totora for Tacchini

Mantiqueira is an inspired collection of vases encapsulating art and nature. Offering sustainability in a creative form, Mantiqueira is formulated from recycled cardboard that is reduced to pulp which is then hand moulded to its’ sculptural shape before drying and finishing. Contributed by Stylecraft.

Didier, TILLER Lounge Armchair

With trapezoidal legs elegantly tapered toward the seat, recline in confident, leisurely style with the TILLER Oak Lounge Chair. Designed by Didier, the TILLER offers beautifully upholstered comfort with natural oak finishes.

Savage Design, Pam Table

Like your aunty Pam, this table has a knack of being great at many things. Sitting on its own, Pam can be used as a side table. Slide 4 Pams together and you have a larger coffee table configuration. But Pams true potential shines when you use the stacking feature to create a bookshelf or room divider. Thanks to Savage Design, Pam offers an unparalleled ability to adapt to a changing environment and allows the user imagination to decide on its use.

About Space, custom piece from the About Space 2by Range

About Space believes that lighting does more than illuminate a room. It’s the final touch to bring life to your space, elevating atmosphere, balancing design choices and enhancing your style. For the 2020 Design Hunter Package, About Space have contributed a custom piece from their 2by range, where minimalist style and sleek lines are the name of the game.

Top 3 By Design, Janua Stomp Coffee Table M and Linie Design Rug

It may look simple, but looks can be deceiving: The BC 05 Stomp is widely viewed as a leading light in the coffee and side table world. With the confidence and poise of a Buddha, this solid slice of tree trunk sits atop a sophisticated metal frame. The Stomp can perfectly complement seating in a variety of styles — providing a striking symbol of personal taste!

Thanks to Top 3 By Design, you’ll be able to pair your coffee table with a beautiful rug by Linie Design! A modern, Nordic look is woven into all their designs, though they constantly reshape, redefine, reinvent and recombine in the search of surprising expressions and surfaces.
