Celebrating the Habitus House of the Year People’s Choice winner with V-ZUG

Bringing its Melbourne studio to life, V-ZUG hosted a special dinner in collaboration with Habitus where guests discovered Excellence by V-ZUG and we announced the Habitus House of the Year People’s Choice winner.


On Thursday 18 November, V-ZUG welcomed guests into its Melbourne studio for an intimate dinner. The night was a way to launch and introduce its new Excellence by V-ZUG range of products and as a Major Partner for Habitus House of the Year, we announced the winner of the People’s Choice – Three Peaks House by Michael Cumming Architect.

Guests were treated to a three-course meal created by renowned Melbourne chef Ian Curley (French Saloon, Kirk’s Wine Bar), with matched wines from Stocked Cellar, while a four-piece jazz ensemble performed throughout the evening.

V-ZUG Australia’s managing director Nic Naes hosted the event, whose passion for the brand was infectious as he introduced a series of videos unpacking the design process of the updated product range.

After so many months in lockdown, the night was a truly special way to reconnect with the industry and peers.
