The Life Outside Issue

Introducing the Life Outside issue of Habitus magazine. With life increasingly being absorbed into a digital space, there is never a more important moment to hold something tangible. In this context, the power of nature to have a physiological impact on our sense of wellbeing has never been more important. 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.

Squaring of the Circle by Zuzunaga

Meizai has released the Squaring of the Circle fabric collection from Spanish Studio Zuzunaga.


Beginning as collaboration between Cristian Zuzunaga and Danish design house Kvadrat, the Squaring of the Cricle collection is now one of the most recognisable collections in the Zuzunaga range.

The colourful character of the collection reflects artist and designer Cristian Zuzunaga’s mission to provoke positive emotions and sensations by introducing colour to daily life with a focus on the pixel, the icon of our time.

The collection takes its name from the expression squaring the circle, or to do something seemingly impossible. The series originally consisted of three pixel print designs, named Spirit, Soul and Fire, which have now been expanded to include three new variations – Mercury, Venus and Luna. Individuality is at the heart of the collection: each cushion is unique thanks to the repeat of the printed fabric that is digitally printed on Trevira CS Fabric by Kvadrat in Denmark.
