Issue 5. Get Some.

Issue 5 asks: how does design stir our feelings and drive our connections to places, to our pasts, our secrets, our inner child and to each other? From Malaysia to Spain, Finland to China, we spotlight groundbreaking creatives and compact design that pushes the boundaries of imagination.

Inside this Issue:

• Tsai Design converts awkward spaces into elegant instruments for living.

• Street artist Cloakwork’s home – buzzing with colour, character and nostalgia.

• The curiosity-driven art practice and benign menace of Bertjan Pot’s rope masks.

• Emilie Seto breathes beauty and dignity into everyday urban life with her artwork.

• Embracing the awkwardness of apartment building communities.

• Small homes: a ‘domestic prototype’ in San Sebastián, a rejection of minimalist aesthetics in Rome, and a Paris apartment that brings outdoor bathing in. 

Plus: a shop of secrets, the Instagram sensation 10/1 from Bogdan Gîrbovan (resplendent in print!), more pepper mills than you can poke a stick at and a sticker sheet surprise.
