It’s that time of year again – perhaps the most exciting time for the global design community, as Milan Design Week appears on the horizon! Salone del Mobile is set to take over the northern Italian city during the week of 7-11^th April, and of course our team will be there on the ground the whole way. We’ll be reporting back on all the news, products and standout installations as well as meeting and interviewing designers from across the world. Stay tuned to both Habitus and Indesign Instagram channels in particular, where we will be creating a daily report on the highlights from Europe.

This year, Habitus and Indesign are teaming up with esteemed lighting brand, iGuzzini, to put on a very special event. Centring on a panel discussion and set within iGuzzini’s charming showroom in the historic Brera quarter of Milan, the event will be a focal point for the Antipodean design community in particular to gather and take stock of things halfway through the week.

Shaping Spaces from Home to Hospitality: A Lighting Dialogue in Milan is set to take place from 10am on Wednesday 9^th April at iGuzzini, Via Brera 5. RSVP here!

With delicious food and great coffee, the event is designed to kickstart the day in Milan. Timothy Alouani-Roby, Editor of Habitusliving and Indesignlive, will lead a lively discussion on how today’s leading designers are drawing inspiration from the latest refinements across hospitality design in the houses they craft. Excitingly, there will then be a special feature on the remarkable restoration of Ca’ da Mosto, a palazzo with over a thousand years of history. With guidance from the experts at iGuzzini, it’s now transformed into the beautiful Venice Venice Hotel.

Cooking from the heart, designing with precision: Chef James Won and Gaggenau’s culinary partnership

To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.

The uncharted plate: Ivan Brehm’s pursuit of crossroads cooking with Gaggenau and human connection.

In this candid interview, the culinary mastermind behind Singapore’s Nouri and Appetite talks about food as an act of human connection that transcends borders and accolades, the crucial role of technology in preserving its unifying power, and finding a kindred spirit in Gaggenau’s reverence for tradition and relentless pursuit of innovation.

AcoustiCalm: Quietly captivating design that speaks volumes

Materialised’s unique creations aren’t just fabrics or wall covering – they are artworks that push the boundaries of craftsmanship. Now, the Australian brand pushes the envelope once again with the launch of AcoustiCalm: sustainable, sound-absorbing panels that weave the poetry of design with the pragmatism of acoustic control.
