1. Memory Lights by Boris Klimek : “I chose this collection of balloon-looking ceiling and wall lights for the fun factor and playfulness,” chuckles art director Anton Pietersen. “These nostalgic lights — ‘inspired by memories of childhood’ — remind me of simpler more imaginative times.” -
7. Grand Theft Auto V by Rockstar : “Video games are my secret guilty pleasure and GTA V is as good as it gets,” confesses ed-at-large Malibongwe Tyilo. “Gameplay aside, I can’t wait to get my hands on it and explore the near-perfect rendition of LA’s architecture from my couch!” -
4. Storm in a Tea Cup by John Lumbus for Laikingland : Managing editor Lise Avis recognised an affinity “with all the stormy spring weather we have had this past week.” By turning the handle, the golden boat rides the mechanical waves while stormy clouds above reveal a bolt of lightning. -
2. Neptune’s Daughter backpacks by Cassandra Verity Green : Features writer Debbie Loots says that although this fishbowl backpack is “anything but practical” she’s “ fallen hook, line and sinker for its zesty-zingy effervescence!” -
5. Mini Cocotte 14cm by Le Creuset : “I just received my Le Creuset 15% discount voucher in the latest Woolworths Taste October issue,” relishes sales executive Eva Cookson. “I can’t wait to go out and buy me this tabletop-friendly mini casserole pot for R 295.” -
6. Disarm by Pedro Reyes : An automated orchestra built out of weapons confiscated from Mexican drug cartels stunned features and online editor Nadine Botha: “Besides the technical genius, the concept of turning guns into musical instruments is goose-bumpy.” -
3. Hampton Floral Oxfords from Thorocraft : Our newest team member, editorial and digital assistant Chantel Hans, loves these exquisite handcrafted beauties. “Made from the finest leathers and materials, the aim is that they gain the unique character of the wearer and look better over time.”
