Radiant Dark was a massive success this year. Check out all the amazing photography.

For better or worse, details affect every moment of the design process from idea to creation, to using and appreciating an object. Julie Nicholson and Shaun Moore of MADE continue to introduce new Canadian designs through their evolving Radiant Dark series with the 2012 theme — the Devil is the Details.

The creative focus and follow through to achieve something of worth does not always come easily and therein, the devil lies … Through the Devil is the Details, a variety of independent designer’s approaches to making are highlighted along with their individual responses. The challenges in their explorations of process, materials, an introduction, a curious element or concept, as they are resolved, are the very things that set their works apart. The Devil is the Details emphasises a level of craftsmanship displayed through an understanding of materials and their handling, tied to a thoughtful approach in the production of functional objects. Known standards are considered and tweaked towards new directions, enriching the final outcome. The details here affect the way objects are made, understood and consumed.
