Never Too Small / 7

If it’s true that we all need a little more joy, this seventh issue of NTS seems to be built around that light, instinctive, and contagious energy that comes from things done with imagination.

 

The cover features Thali Zukeram and Gabi Zukeram, aka Two Lost Kids, who open the doors to their tiny, colorful apartment, sharing a free-spirited, eccentric, and lively vision of home life.

 

Inside, we find the “cave of dreams” by Italian artist ZUZU, the irreverent tiles by Spanish designers Bussoga, the colorful urban interventions by Camille Walala, and the lamp-objects reinvented by the duo Will it Lamp?

 

The issue explores homes, objects, and projects that transform everyday materials into something unexpected: from the works of designer Curro Claret to the modular furniture conceived by Luna Haverkorn. To wrap things up, three very different homes—in Melbourne, Barcelona, and Kanagawa—united by the same idea: making room for a more personal, playful, and human way of inhabiting the world.
