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.

Dinosaur Designs Embraces Nature With The Wildflower Collection

The beauty of nature has always been calming and fruitful source of inspiration for design, and with Wildflower, Dinosaur Designs channels it into true beauty.


Looking back on an unprecedented year of uncertainty and anxiety, Dinosaur Designs looked to the wild beauty of nature as the source for Wildflower, a collection meant to calm us, create positivity, and offer us the inspiration we need to close out 2020.

The new Wildflower collection from Dinosaur Designs sees an exploration of the shapes and colours of an untamed garden, channelled into a range that expressed joy and wonder. Wildflower is characterised by soft organic forms and a striking vivid botanical-inspired palette.

Lush, saturated colours such as Lemon, Leaf, Sandalwood, Cobalt and Peach are married with the classic Dinosaur Designs flourishes of Guava, Melon Swirl and Snow White Swirl. The resulting colour profile makes a beautiful, striking statement that serves the physical designs elegantly.

“We hope after a challenging year that these colours lift, inspire and give people hope,” says Dinosaur Designs Creative Director Louise Olsen, “This Wildflower collection evokes that sense of taking a moment to explore the beauty and wildness in nature, and of losing yourself a little.”

The jewellery within the Wildflower collection features earthy new statement pieces such as Flat Rock Hoop, Oval Pebble and Rock Chain earrings, alongside more classically sculptural items such as the Rock Pendant and Wave Pendant on chain.

Alongside the jewellery items is also a collection of homewares that would serve as stunning statement pieces in any contemporary home. With the sculptural forms of nature as the inspiration, the Wildflower Seed bowls mimic the soft uneven contours of seed pods, while the Branch vase range expressing a pleasing symmetry that’s as functional as it is striking. Likewise the collection’s range of platters, plates and servers, which would serve as the ideal backdrop to fruit, meals, or simply as visual statement pieces in a kitchen.

Wildflower is currently available in all Dinosaur Designs’ Sydney, Brisbane, London stores, as well as through their online store.
