Habitus #64 Welcome to the HABITUS ‘Future’ and ‘Habitus House of the Year’ 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!

Stories Indesign

Phillip Withers

Phillip Withers joins Stories Indesign podcast to discuss landscape design in relation to Country, place and European notions of control, as well as his part on the Habitus House of the Year 2025 Jury with Winnings.

LISTEN HERE!

Phil Withers, of the eponymous landscape architecture practice, joins me in Melbourne at The Commons in mid-2025 as the first landscape architect on the podcast. We discussed a history of ideas – of what a garden is, its relationship to surrounding nature, European ideas of control and taming rather than Country-centred ones of care. Phil is also on this year’s jury for Winnings x Habitus House of the Year, and he shares insights into the perspective that a landscape designer can bring to architecture and interiors.
