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

Peter’s Playground by Studio GSA is a home that explores the versatility and prominence of marble in interior design.


Peter’s Playground conceived by Studio GSA is a residence that places marble at the centre of its material palette. Located in Bengaluru, the home is tailored for a client with expertise in stone, using marble as both a structural and decorative element throughout.

The lift foyer sets the tone with a relief marble feature wall and a wooden bench. A textured wooden door leads into the main vestibule, where silvery marble flooring with a black inlay delineates a formal entrance. A veneered storage unit provides functional organisation without disrupting the design, while a marble and metal table and a framed mirror add refinement.

The family and dining areas integrate fluted wooden panels with marble flooring, creating a consistent visual language. The dining area features an inlaid marble floor that eliminates the need for a rug, while the family area includes a television unit framed in relief marble cladding. The formal living room incorporates plush leather seating and fluted wooden panels on the ceiling, with a concealed bar clad in silver river marble.

Marble, unsurprisingly, is used extensively in the bathrooms, incorporating a mix of fluted, lapatro and leather finishes to create textural contrast. In the kitchen, bold red marble with expressive veining serves as a statement feature, with each slab selected to highlight its natural pattern.

Suggested: Simplicity and peace in this bamboo-inspired urban haven

Bedrooms are designed with individual preferences in mind. The master bedroom features a neutral beige palette. One child’s bedroom incorporates a blue accent wall, while another includes a custom-built bunk bed and blue onyx details. The guest room maintains a softer, pastel-toned aesthetic.

The design balances marble with warm materials, including fluted wood and leather, ensuring the space remains inviting despite the dominance of stone. The result is a highly curated interior that reflects both the homeowner’s appreciation for marble and the studio’s precision in execution.
