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.

Raffles College designers at MBFWA

Four young designers from the Singapore university present their collections at Mercedes Benz fashion week in Sydney.

Winson Tan, Crystal Tsoi, Ayaka Ichikawa and Gabriel Lee represented the Raffles College at Sydney fashion week, showcasing collections which featured flowing, diaphanous fabrics and stylised summer moods.

Winson Tan‘s collection incorporated layered, transparent fabrics and an aquamarine, orange and light pink palette, resulting in clinging, elegant garments with a retro twist.

Crystal Tsoi‘s work played with classical cuts subtly including unexpected details. Asymmetrical skirt and dresses and rich, dark tones contributed to create an edgy elegance.

Ayaka Ichikawa’s pieces made use of clean, minimalist structures and exaggerated volumes. Left-right contrasts and alternating fabrics injected texture and dynamism into the garments.

Gabriel Lee concluded the show with a whimsical collection of more formal garments, featuring lengthened, open jackets and dresses and a palette of light peach and cream colours.
