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

Humble, Handmade Light Fittings From Marz Designs

As the name implies, each piece from Marz Designs’ Terra collection of architectural lighting is made from Earth’s natural materials; timber and clay.


As a designer – and a human – Coco Reynolds is refreshingly down-to-earth. The proof is in the thoughtful materiality of the items that come out of her independent industrial design practice, Marz Designs.

Consider the Terra lighting collection, for instance; a versatile selection of pendants, ceiling and wall fixtures, born from a marriage of natural materials in functional form. Handmade clay ceramic shades and combinations of hand-turned timber compose the collection’s design variations – each of which is honest in appearance and architectural in construct.

Made in collaboration with Byron Bay-based artisan, Grit Ceramics, the slip cast ceramic components of the light shades are available in a choice of three tones; Slate, Sage, and Vanilla Bean. Each Terra collection piece is infused with subtle variations inherent of handcraft, making each light fitting rich in origin and unique in form.

Terra 00

Crafted with a combination of two contrasting half domes, Terra 00 is available in pendant, wall and ceiling-mounted formats. Ceramic shades paired with hand-turned FSC certified timbers in Walnut or Oak to create these unique pieces.

 

Terra 0

Featuring a brass backplate and a short or long articulating arm this light is available in a wall light format and is both directional and functional. The singular domed ceramic fitting creates a controlled light source.

 

Terra 1.0

Simple cylindrical ceramic forms create the Terra 1 range. Available in pendant, wall and articulating wall formats. Mix and match to bring a sense of individuality into a master bedroom.

 

Terra 1.5

A matte cylindrical shape is layered with a smaller glazed base to create this asymmetric stack of ceramic forms with two contrasting finishes. The Terra 1.5 is available as a feature pendant or directional ceiling mounted light.

 

Terra 2.0

These lights feature two slip-cast lamp holders with unique brass or blackened brass detailing. A duo of ceramic cylinders stacked to form a bi-directional wall light suitable for both residential and commercial interior spaces.
