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.

Funkis, the Swedish fashion and homewares brand, is bringing Thorberg Design to the Australian market with a range of colourful reading glasses for men and women.


They used to call it the ‘Four-Eyes Club’.  The awkward geeky group of kids tagged with the stigma of being a bookworm simply because of their deteriorating eyesight. Erkel was their anti-hero, his bright red, thick-rimmed spectacles the height of anti-fashion.

Oh, how times have changed. These days the hipsters are donning the formerly geeky look en masse. Accessorising with thick-rimmed glasses in outlandish colours.

Funkis, the Swedish fashion and homewares brand, is currently bringing Thorberg Design to the Australian market with a range of colourful reading glasses for men and women.

These ultra affordable spectacles come in a number of timeless designs, with 0-3.5 magnification for those who have trouble reading the fine print. And they’re also suitable for prescription lenses.

Habitus Deputy Editor, Nicky Lobo, visited the home of Funkis owner and founder Carina Engstrom-Gibb in the latest issue Habitus #14, on newsstands 7 December, 2011. Get your copy to read the full story, or subscribe to Habitus here.
