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.

Finding treasures in the middle of nowhere

Middle of Nowhere is a small Melbourne design studio that is all about making great design accessible, inspiring and fun.


Founded by father-daughter duo Grant and Sarah Brooke, Middle of Nowhere offers a range of unique, specially crafted furnishings for the home. From designer cushions to planters, the Middle of Nowhere team is dedicated to making good design something everyone should enjoy every day.

Alongside the design works, Middle of Nowhere also offers a painting collection, originally designed and painted in Melbourne by co-founder Sarah Brooke. Sarah’s paintings feature an intuitive approach to colour and composition, and have attracted her, and Middle of Nowhere, an international following.

These paintings are in line with the philosophy of father daughter team – that is, to offer a great and honest design charm for the homes of everyone.
