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.

Windows by Design

Artists Andy Warhol and Salvador Dali both had short-lived careers as window dressers. Now the beer brand Peroni is promoting Melbourne artists with a host of street front exhibits that show some style.

Windows By Design is a new fashion and design initiative curated by stylist Alex Zabotto-Bentley.

As part of the creative endeavour, Peroni asked 12 of Melbourne’s leading retailers to work with single artists, or studios to build window displays inspired by Peroni’s Blue Ribbon motif.

For the entire month of March these retailers and others will give up prime retail real estate to be involved in the first ever Windows By Design. Timed to support L’Oreal Fashion Festival in Melbourne 8-15 March Windows by Design  brings together some of Australia’s best fashion, design and art talent.

Local bars in and round these windows will also get involved with special events and offerings sponsored by Peroni.

According to Carlton United Brewery, who instigated the promotion, they are constantly looking for new ways to support fashion, design and emerging talent.

”Windows By Design embodies the essence of the Peroni Blue Ribbon. I’d like to thank the very talented Alex Zabotto-Bentley and the participating artists and designers for taking part,” says Richard Oppy, Group Marketing Manager International Beers at CUB.
