The Life Outside Issue

Introducing the Life Outside issue of Habitus magazine. With life increasingly being absorbed into a digital space, there is never a more important moment to hold something tangible. In this context, the power of nature to have a physiological impact on our sense of wellbeing has never been more important. So how can we cultivate the benefits of the our natural environment in the most intimate of places – our homes? This was the question that helped to bring this issue of Habitus to life.

Dialling In With Myers Ellyet

Episode 1 of our new podcast, Dialling In With Habitus, features a conversation with Brisbane-based architecture studio Myers Ellyet.


William Ellyet and Jade Meyers are the founders and directors of Myers Ellyet. Five years ago when they established the practise it didn’t seem like the best time to do so, coincidently they were both beginning families and buying houses. Now, they recognise those first 12-18 months as a crucial learning period setting them up to become the business owners and managers on top of architects that they are today. More than that, key learning from that time have carried over giving them the ability to sit relatively comfortably in the uncertainty we currently find ourselves in.

On episode 1 of Dialling In With Habitus, we speak to Bill and Jade about how their practice – with the notion of collaboration at its core ­– is navigating remote working. We talk about the benefits of increased efficiency compared to the reduced capacity to casually tease out ideas and possible ways we might be able to get the best of both worlds in the future.
