The 'Future' Issue

We are thrilled to have interior designer of excellence, Brahman Perera, as Guest Editor and to celebrate his Sri Lankan heritage through an interview with Palinda Kannangara and his extraordinary Ek Onkar project – divine! Thinking about the future, we look at the technology shaping our approach to sustainability and the ways traditional materials are enjoying a new-found place in the spotlight. Profiles on Yvonne Todd, Amy Lawrance, and Kallie Blauhorn are rounded out with projects from Studio ZAWA, SJB, Spirit Level, STUDIOLIVE, Park + Associates and a Lake House made in just 40 days by the wonderful Wutopia Lab, plus the short list for the Habitus House of the Year!

Designed by: Konstantin Grcic for Established & Sons

Why we love it: Inspired by dustsheets thrown over furniture in hotels and country estates, ‘Cape’ has a sense of mystery and casual elegance about it. With an interchangeable overlay cover, it’s also one of the most versatile sofas around.
