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

Diversity + Community Conference 2017, Melbourne

Join leading architects of the world to explore the role of architecture as a positive force in uncertain times.


An enviable speaker list and an excited program of events and social engagements await delegates to the upcoming Diversity + Community Conference in Melbourne.

Hosted by the Architecture Foundation Australia, Diversity + Community 2017 presents a unique opportunity to members of the architectural profession to engage with some of the leading architects of the world as they discuss the challenges and emerging opportunities for responsive, culturally and socially engaged architecture.

Niall McLaughlin, recipient of the 2016 RIBA Charles Jencks Award, and Marina Tabassum, recipient of the 2016 Aga Khan Award for her Bait Ur Rouf Mosque in Dhaka, will be the keynote speakers at the event. The architecture conference also features 10 Murcutt Master Class alumni as speakers with their inspirational talks expected to initiate discussion on the role of architecture as a positive force in uncertain times and its ability to empower diversity and community.

Hosted by – and developed in partnership with – the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV), Melbourne, the Diversity + Community Conference will be held from 10-12 February. The event is supported by the National Gallery of Victoria as part of the Victorian Design Program.
