Kitchen & Bathroom Issue

Habitus 63 is arguably the most aspirational issue of the year with Kitchens & Bathrooms to dream about. Whether a family hub, an entertainer’s paradise or somewhere to grad a quick meal, how we live in and spend time in the kitchen is a very personal question that requires thought and an abundance of resources. Always the aspirational eye candy of design, we have some truly lovely kitchens from Greg Natale, YSG, Splinter Society, Sally Caroline and Studio Johnston. Bathrooms are just as important with Greg Natale, Studio Tate, YSG and Those Architects sharing some fabulous insights

Nikolay Sardamov in Sydney

Bulgarian jeweller turns discarded inner tubes into edgy ‘wearables’.


Nikolay Sardamov’s jewellery is a fusion of the precious and the found. Repurposing bicycle inner tubes and combining them with precious metals, Sardamov explores what could best be described as playful industrial.

Sardamov will be visiting Australia next month to open an exhibition at metalab in Sydney, which will show an array of his beautiful jewellery.

The Bulgarian’s solo exhibition, Continuum, is the first Australian showing receiving much acclaim throughout Europe for his finely crafted silver works.

Trained in fine arts with a Masters in jewellery and metal, Sardamov aims not simply to create beautiful objects, but to challenge social norms, asking us to consider issues of environment, sustainability and mobility.

From 6 – 27 May 2010 Continuum will show works from The Secret Garden, Intersections, Bi-Re-Cycle and Soft Construction collections.

To coincide with Sardamov’s visit, metalab will also be holding a 1-day workshop exploring the re-working of bicycle inner tubes into jewellery. Participants will be given a range of different inner tubes and materials that, under Sardamov’s guidance, will be turned into unique contemporary ‘wearables’.

Continuum opens on 6 May from 6 – 9pm, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet Sardamov in person.
