Happy in Finland
founder Rosie Malham
might not consider
herself an ‘artist’, per se,
but her designs – made
for dangling cheerfully
from your ear lobes –
sure are rather pleasing
for the eyes. They start
their lives as free-form
papercuts, snipped out
in her Hobart studio,
before being converted
into acrylic and brass.
Rosie has kindly offered
us a pair (worth $45) to
give away, so hop over to
frankie.com.au/winand
wish with all your might.

We’re going to keep
this short and sweet.
Karen Mabon – British
designer of silk scarves
and fairytale-like
imagery – has taken
her artwork somewhere
you can plonk your butt
on: cushions. They’re
made from 100 per cent
cotton and are rather
delightful indeed. Head
to karenmabon.com if
you don’t believe us.

Well, we’ve gotta say: this Arch chair is up there with
the places we’ve most wanted to park our derrieres.
Made from lush velvet, wood and rattan, it was
designed by father-daughter duo Douglas and Bec in
their New Zealand studio, inspired by the late 1920s
and ’30s, and the deep appreciation folks had for
the stylish furniture they used day-to-day. Colour us
impressed. douglasandbec.commirador
This isn’t the first time that Mirador has appeared in these here pages, but if
you ask us, their latest collection is worth staging a comeback. An ode to the
dusty land and moon up high, it has lots of earthy tones, floaty frills and galactic
vibes – and it kind of gives us a hankering to go plant some seeds under a full
moon. Pop past mirador.net.au if you fancy seeing more.
house,
house, baby
Hello, Scout Editions?
When the barman said your
drink was “on the house”,
I’m not sure they meant it
quite so literally. Even so,
we’re rather fond of this
coaster set you’ve gone
and made – especially the
top- notch wood you sourced
all the way from Sweden.
And the smile-inducing
colours are pretty cool,
too! Here, have around
$38 in exchange for a
set of four, if you please.
