THE WALKMAN

For all of those Spaders in there mid 20's and 30's you will have fond memories of the WALKMAN. This little bad boy was the hottest accessory to have in high school back in the 80's & 90's. At Spader we are predicting this to be a hot fashion item in the near future, what do you think? Can the cassette tape make a come back??

SPADER MOMENT

For those who came to our Canberra Globalize launch in June you will remember Canberra beat boxer Kodak who made a special performance that night. On Friday, Kodak made his way down to Melbourne to see his hero perform, this is no other than the world's greatest beat boxer of all time Rahzel. Somehow Kodak got on stage with Razhel and performed with him. If you don't believe us then check the footage below. Spader would like to say a big congratualtions to Kodak for making one of his all time greatest dreams come true!

SPADER CRIBS



Sick of the office you work in? In need of inspiration when you have that deadline creeping up at work? Or just want to get in touch with nature? Then Spader has found the answer for you!
Bark Design Architects, a small Australian practice, have designed a studio for themselves that showcases their philosophy of design and provides a great space to work. The “workhouse”, an elevated steel, glass and plywood studio, “explores the notion of a mixed work / house typology.” The architects intended for the project to expresses lightness in its modular structural form, transparency, texture, and a seamless indoor to outdoor connection.



The architects carefully placed the building between two mature Brown Bloodwood eucalypt trees as a way to emphasize the relationship between the built and the natural. Perched atop four steel footings, the elevated building not only visually translates into a light “floating” project but also minimizes any disturbance to the natural ground line and the trees’ root systems.



The building can accommodate a design team of five to six people, a house for two people and a comfortable combination of both at times.
