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

Safety By Design

When considering accessibility, safety principles take care of physical health, but good design also promotes mental and emotional wellbeing.


 

It is a question often asked – how can we plan for safety and accessibility without compromising the principles of design? Without adequate research and resources, bathroom design for the less able client can present a limited range of choices and a high chance of sterile, clinical outcomes. Unless we embrace the principle of Archability®…

Archability® is a fusion of architecture and the universally recognised need for accessibility for all persons. It is the shower seat of warmto- touch anatomically moulded plastic; it is the ‘SOFT’ grab rail in stylish muted neutral tones; it is about creating accessible private bathrooms – not public changing facilities. A division of assistive technology provider Active Mobility, Archability® has partnered with French manufacturer Pellet ASC – specialists in comfort and safety for the bathroom environment. This partnership brings to Australia one of the widest ranges of accessible bathroom products, influenced by French designer agencies EDDS and PhilMoineDesign.
