5. In Orbit by Ward Shelley and Alex Schweder : “I certainly wouldn’t like to live in an architectural hamster wheel, but it reminded me of the first (and only) studio apartment I rented, which was so small I used to call it my hamster cage,” features and online Nadine Botha chuckles.|
1. Mandalas by Lula Aldunate : “Who wouldn't just go gaga over these gorgeous series of mandala-inspired compositions?" features writer Debbie Loots gushes. “I especially love how the pretty vintage colours and prints manage to work with nasty neons.”|
7. Birds in a Row by Christine Herold and Katharina Ganz : "With a little bit of winter surprising us in Cape Town, I have had to whip out my winter jacket — this gorgeous coat rack makes me want to make the winter coats a feature in my home," managing editor Lise Avis sighs.|
