Logg Dining Table & Torii Dining Chair | ||
 |
Created by: Jarrod Lim Why we love it: Part of Jarrod Lim’s new furniture label Hinika, the solid wood Logg Dining Table is a thoughtful design with removable legs for easy transport and storage. It’s best matched with the Torii Dining Chair, which is made of oak and stackable. Torii also comes in an outdoor teak version, complete with a removable, quick dry cushion.

Created by: Plato Why we love it: The Coco Cozy Cot is a handcrafted outdoor chair made from a highly unique weaving pattern that casts interesting forms on walls and floors when light hits it. We love how traditional craft has been used to create such a modern, sculptural piece of furniture. It’s no wonder that the product has bagged the Good Design Award. Where you can get it: Plato | |

Truss Wall–Mounted Hanger | ||
 |
Created by: Grafunkt Why we love it: Inspired by how wild mushrooms often grow in clusters, the Truss Wall-mounted Hanger has ‘hooks’ of different sizes to accommodate different needs. Beyond satisfying our desire for functionality, it can also be hung up as a wall feature. With utility and aesthetics both accounted for, what’s not to love? Where you can get it: Grafunkt

Soup Instinct | ||
 |
Created by: Celia Law for Makan Time! Tuck in to Good Design Why we love it: Makan Time! Tuck in to Good Design is an exhibition organised by the Little Thoughts Group that explores Singaporean heritage and icons through food-inspired designs. We were drawn to Celia Law’s Soup Instinct, a compact herbal soup cooker for young couples keen to enjoy home-cooked food with minimal effort after a hard day’s work. Soup Instinct consists of a cast iron external pot that acts as a boiler and warmer, and a porcelain container for the soup’s herbal components. Within the porcelain pot is a bamboo-look basket that sifts the ingredients after cooking. A porcelain cover doubles as a bowl. | |
Carbon | ||
 |
Created by: d-Bodhi Why we love it: The Carbon furniture collection is made from a colourful mosaic of old boat wood. The modern squared-off shapes sit solidly on a strong foundation of brushed iron bars. Whoever would have thought that discarded wood could be given such beautiful new purpose? Where you can get it: d-Bodhi | |
Vladimir Trestle Table | ||
 |
Designed by: Studiobo for Arc Living Why we love it: Inspired by the Constructivism Movement, this modern rendition of the trestle table is made of solid brass legs and premium quality mahogany wood.

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.
