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.

Bunky by Marc Newson

The latest kid-friendly design from Magis, by Marc Newson.

World-renowned, award-winning Australian designer, Marc Newson, unveiled his latest design for ever-funky brand Magis at Milan design week 2011.

The rotation-moulded polyethylene ‘Bunky’ is a children’s bunk bed, designed for sleep and play. It has no sharp edges and a smooth finish to make for a very safe sleeping solution for the kids.

It’s great to see Newson turning his hand to such varied and interesting projects – a Qantas plane seat one day, a stovetop the next and now this.

 

 

The Bunky features a cool ladder for reaching the top bunk and also comes in a single bed version.

Hopefully we’ll be seeing it in the Region soon!
