Berlin fashion collective Standard Clothing is redefining everyday dressing.
While other young brands may draw their inspiration from street culture or the club scene, Standard Clothing, a new womenswear label based in Berlin, takes its aesthetic lead – and its name – from a more unusual place: Standard Möbel, a German furniture company co-founded by Marcel Breuer in 1927 (and bought by Thonet a few years later). ‘I have always had a fascination with the Bauhaus philosophy,’ says Nam Nguyen, the 25-year-old fashion designer who launched Standard Clothing last year. ‘The idea of multipurpose design still feels relevant, even 100 years after it was first conceived.’

Guiding Light - Designer Joe Armitage follows his grandfather's footsteps in India, reissuing his elegant midcentury lamp and creating a new chandelier for Nilufar Gallery
For some of us, family inheritances I tend to be burdensome, taking up space, emotionally and physically, in both our minds and attics. For the London-based designer and architect Joe Armitage, however, a family heirloom has taken him somewhere lighter and brighter, across generations and continents, and into the path of Le Corbusier. This is the story of a lamp designed by Edward Armitage in India 72 years ago, which has today been expanded into a collection of lights by his grandson Joe.
