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

Cardboard for Furniture

Capas (‘layers’ in Spanish) is the cardboard furniture range designed by Peruvian Architect Luis Gomez Siu.

CAPAS furniture was created when designer Luis Gomez Siu decided to replicate a chair previously designed by him and that was originally made with a traditional timber frame, a timber veneered finish and fabric cushions.

The CAPAS chair was the first piece designed for the CAPAS range, and the result: a new take on its former design, rebuilt with 7mm double corrugated cardboard sheets put together vertically to maximize its strength. With its tanned leather lumbar cushion, and its signature surrounding leather belt, the chair holds the cardboard layers together with perfect harmony

The CAPAS range includes the CAPAS stool and the CAPAS table, which are also made out of layered cardboard sheets with leather and felt elements, light in weight, and surprisingly more durable than one would imagine.

CAPAS is the perfect blend of sharp lines and soft accessories. All pieces are put together individually by hand and come with their distinctive surrounding leather belt.

These unique pieces are rich in texture and a must have if you are a fan of paper and cardboard. They can also be made to order to suit specific size and colour requirements.
