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.

Kisaragi

By K5 Furniture

An innovation called Compressed straight-grainer cedar.

Kisaragi is the worlds first dining chair to make use of straight-grained cedar wood. HIDA’s attempt to leverage the appeal of the dignified straight grain that is characteristic of cedar lead to research for compressed wood that was not “cross-grain wood,” where knots and the like appear in the wood, but “straight-grain wood,” which requires more precise and uniform compression technology. Success in this research birthed “Kisaragi,” where the beautiful straight grain and straight lines are out in their best light. The name “Kisaragi,” means “for plants to turn over a new leaf,” symbolising domestic cedar wood being given a new lease on life.
