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.

The Skeehan Brothers Cookbook

Award-winning industrial designer, Tom Skeehan, and his brother, Dan Skeehan, manager of Canberra’s Hippo Bar, have created a cookbook that provides a glimpse of their home and the recipes they’ve grown up with.


The Skeehan Brothers Cookbookbook celebrates the love of food that they grew up with during their time in the South Coast, NSW and Denver, Colorado. The brothers honed their cooking on the road, in the homes of their friends and family, and most tellingly, in the great outdoors.

“We both have travelled extensively – particularly visiting family in USA. These experiences, exploring other cultures food and cooking for large family dinners, inspired us to begin to catalogue our own recipes so we could bring them home to share with friends,” says Dan Skeehan.

Tom Skeehan says they were lucky enough to grow up in a family that took pride in cooking and sharing recipes. “Our family meals were not fancy or elaborate, although ingredients were always good, often locally sourced – no frills, honest home cooking. Yet, they were always delicious, because of the love and pleasure that was taken when preparing them for each other,” explains Tom.
