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.

Design Hunter™ Q&A with Khai Liew

In the March 28 issue of Habitus, Khai Liew tells us about his design favourites. Here we get a taste of what’s in the up coming issue.

The South Australian-based craftsman works mainly in timber. Here he appreciates elegant forms by fellow Australian designers in other classic materials.

“I have always loved Oliver’s work for what he takes away from his sculptural forms. You see and feel the form but you sense the negative space.”

Generation II Petal Spoons by Oliver Smith

“I admire how Marc has created this crockery to link in with his seating designs for the Qantas lounge to consolidate the brand identity. It is beauty and utility personified.”

Marc Newson Crockery Collection by Marc Newson for Noritake

“There’s a sense of timelessness and elegance of proportion that is inherent in so much of Charles’ work.”

Candelabra by Charles Wilson for MENU
