Issue 66

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.

Eclipse by Kenneth Cobonpue

The Filipino designer has conceptualised a beautiful, civilized and high-tech version of the humble three-wheeler using the bicycle spokes as a design metaphor.

From the streets of Shanghai to New York, the rickshaw has proven to be a friendly and green alternative to the automobile and is the primary means of transport and livelihood for millions of people.

Made of aluminum and woven with recyclable polyethylene, a composition of circles forms a lightweight frame bound with a tight weave and covered on the top with insulated fabric. Seats, handlebars and headrest are made of hand stitched weatherproof vinyl. Appointed with unexpected luxuries such as an Ipod dock, speakers, cup holders, a cooling fan and fully closable panels on all sides, Cobonpue has taken a commonplace conveyance to a whole new level with the style and craftsmanship his brand is renowned for.
