Habitus Issue 02 On Sale Now
Pick up the second issue of Habitus to hear from personalities such as New Zealand designer, David Trubridge, and Filipino Kenneth Cobonpue, as well as a look at the body of work of Malaysian architect, Kevin Low. Designers, Pierre and Charlotte Julien, talk to us about how they have sustained a successful partnership, both professionally and at home, and we also visit an artistic and cultural haven in Malaysia.

Habitus 02 explores homes from Singapore, New Zealand and Australia, with some stunning examples which take advantage of Tasmania’s dramatic coastline. We compare two projects by Robert Brown in very different, yet iconic, Australian environments, as well as an extension by Glenn Murcutt.
