2. Stylised Breakfast Table

3. Cycle While You Work

“I’m not calling this thing pretty, but I do think it’s a wonderful life-hack for busy multi-taskers who want to be fit without letting go of workaholism,” says features editor Bibi Slippers. “It’s called a WeBike and it’s basically a cycling-desk. You get to ‘cycle’ while you work and the effort will charge your iPhone too.” Clever!

4. Halo Chair

Editor-at-large Malibongwe Tyilo loves Michael Sodeau’s Halo chair, which makes use of carbon fibre developed by Formula 1 engineers. ‘It has just become my new reason for living,’ he says.

5. AngloGold Ashanti AuDITIONS Winner

Kristen Malan just won first place in this gold jewellery design competition for her exquisite “Halo”, which features 495 separate gold elements. “It’s ethereal, futuristic and old-fashioned all at the same time. It’s just breathtaking,” says online editor Lindi Brownell Meiring.
