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.

About me:

Designed for the IX Triennale in Milan in 1951, Lady perfectly exemplifies the philosophy of Arflex and its revolutionary exploration of new technology and materials.

 

 

 

 

Lady was developed to realise the potential of new rubbers, foams and elastics within the realms of furniture manufacture.

 

 

 

This adoption of new technology made it one of the first contemporary chairs to be designed for mass production resulting in its designer being awarded the Gold Medal at the IX Triennale and its enduring success as an iconic design.
