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.

Saturday in Design births a collaboration between Swedish furniture company Massproductions and Australian installation artist, Jordana Maisie

As part of Saturday in Design Sydney homeware retailer Spence and Lyda
produced ‘The Project’ – a collaboration between Swedish furniture
company Massproductions and Australian installation artist, Jordana
Maisie.

Kaleidoscope images were projects onto tables to create a subtle and
colourful installation in the store’s gigantic street facing window.

Inspired by a work curated by British projection artist John Easterby, The Project used Massproductions’ minimal indoor/outdoor TIO range as the canvas for Maisies projections.

Berlin-based Australian installation artist Jordana Maisie developed her ideas during the making of a previous kaleidoscopic work entitled The Reel Thing in 2008. This work utilised live feed imagery to project moving images of people, flowers and life –in vibrant display.

Collaborating on the showpiece for Spence & Lyda’s Saturday In Design presentation, the work was exhibited in the showroom from August 18-22.
