Vintage Modern Issue

The breadth and scope of Habitus has always been extraordinary. With how we live at heart of every issue, we have stepped it up with Guest Editor David Flack of Flack Studio shaking the ‘how’ and looking at new ways to make a house a home. With Vintage Modern as the issues theme, we look at the way iconic design has stayed with us, how daring pieces from the past can add the wow factor and how architecture and good design defy the pigeon hole of their era.

A Fusion of Architecture and Nature

Gessi aims to fulfil the desire to blend nature with architecture in people’s private habitats, envisioning the bathroom not only as a place for regeneration and well-being but also as a truly natural shelter.


In order to achieve a design that could shape the fusion between architecture and landscape, Gessi conducted research in South Eastern Asia, where ancient culture and nature enters gracefully into the house and the living space expands in uninterrupted continuity towards the outside.

In this area, craftsmanship and design produce a remarkable distillation of traditional shapes and natural materials into extraordinarily fine contemporary furnishings.

During a journey among the lush scenery and the dwellings in South Eastern Asia, designer and sculptor Prospero Rasulo captured the sun filtering light cones across vegetation. The architectural form describes his ideal fusion of architecture and nature – The Cone – became the new “sign” of Gessi.
