How can we change the culture of copying?
In our final instalment, we look at the culture of copying in the interior design industry and how we can bring about change.
Saving the Industry from the Replica Plight
Last week we looked at copyright and design laws, which relate to the form of a design. In Part 3, we discuss what can be done about the common practice of replica furniture being sold by association with the name of the original designer, design or brand.
Continuing the Replica Design Fight
In Part two of our series with K&L Gates on replica designs, we look at the ways in which new and original designs can be protected.
An Eye for Detail

Habitus Loves…. Lounging with the Classics
Looking at the Art of Lounging comes in many shapes and forms, but we cannot forget the classics – new or old, these are the lounges that last a lifetime. Here are some of our current favourites.
Habitus Loves… Getting Low to Lounge
There’s something especially relaxing about sitting near – even on – the ground. It suggests a sense of casualness – when we’re perching, lying down, or sitting cross-legged, we tend to be in a relaxed frame of mind. So here we’ve picked out a range of low seating ideas that bring us close to the earth.
Sarcastic Seating
In 56th Studio’s collection ‘Caricature as Furniture’, we see a different kind of seat. These chairs are communicative, exploring Pop and Hollywood culture through a graphic style inspired by caricature.
Back to Basics
Most of us would agree our lives could do with a little less clutter. Focusing on this point, we look at design in this vein – furniture and products that honour simplicity.
FEEL + FINISH
We feature 8 products that feature man-made, time-honoured and organic textures that celebrate contrast, tactility and physical interaction.
