Kitchen & Bathroom Issue

Kitchens and bathrooms are, arguably, the most consequential rooms in the home — and almost always the first to be considered. Whether approached through renovation or new build, their design has the power to recalibrate how a home is lived in and experienced. For this issue, our guest editor, Mardi Doherty, principal of Studio Doherty, explores what it truly means to transform these pivotal spaces — and why thoughtful design in kitchens and bathrooms delivers dividends far beyond the purely functional. Her insights both as an architect and as her own client give an open and honest account of the thinking behind creating a home.

Announcing the LiveLife Seminar Series

The three part LiveLife Seminar Series has been announced for Melbourne Indesign 2016, featuring discussions on how design influences our day-to-day lives.


The LiveLife talks, hosted by members of the Habitus editorial team for Meldbourn Indesign 2016, featuring prominent members of the design community will see architects, designers, developers, builders, and more discussing the ins and outs of what makes design lovers tick and how design can enrich our lives.

The events this year…

Heritage and Australian Identity – We look at the brick veneer and the suburbs: should we be embarrassed or proud over our architectural past and is cultural elitism a problem in Australian design?

Disrupting Design Living – In an examination of the new commune trend, we ask what defines a commune in terms of design and how can we best design for senses of community?

Lighting the Home – How do we show off where and how we live? In a panel discussion over modern lighting design and its impacts, we look at all aspects of home lighting and whether it should be seen or should it just illuminate space?

We’re very exciting to welcome you to these LiveLife talks held across Melbourne this 12th of August.
