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.

Aerial Acrobatics For The Domestic Circus

Porcelain Bear’s Acrobat lighting series interprets the grace of aerial dancers in your own home or office.


Porcelain Bear’s Acrobat series plays out the death defying tricks of an aerial performer in a collection of highly executed lighting pieces.

The Acrobat series, modular to allow for ample choice in metallic finishes, is accented with opaque porcelain arms extending outwards.

The beauty of each piece is in its refined form, which urges one to appreciate the poise and movement of the weightless and folding body suspended from a central trapeze.

Coming in four different styles, the Acrobat series includes; the Flat Bar, a simple but elegant straight metal bar; the Back Flip, where the metal bar bends into a slick 90 degree angle; the Forward Bend, where the metal bar draped over into a 180 degree angle with both porcelain shades facing downwards; and the Double Act, which is a combination of two of the previous three styles balancing on a shared trapeze.
