Habitus 06 encompasses living in design, bringing you diverse stories from the Region.

In Australia we meet the three sisters behind fashion label, High Tea with Mrs Woo; join Stephen Ormandy of Dinosaur Designs on his inspired artistic journey; and explore residential projects by installation artist, Janet Laurence. While in the Philippines and Malaysia, discover how traditional techniques meet modern materials in the work of furniture designer, Ann Pamintuan, and textile/fashion designer, Edric Ong.

Whether a beach house in Far North Queensland, a home for an extended family in Bangkok or a penthouse apartment in Sydney, different ways of living are celebrated in Habitus. Across the ditch, New Zealand art gallery owner, John Gow, opens up his home and art collection for us and we see how architects, Mitchell Stout, design for town and country living.

Habitus celebrates its first birthday this issue, with plenty of exciting content and a few design tweaks to more distinctly define the sections of the magazine. Enjoy the dedicated product section up front, with all the latest from around the world and some Springtime ideas for outdoor living.

In Singapore, meet Nathan Yong, founder of Air Division, and architect William Lim. In Australia, get acquainted with Melbourne-based illustrator, Megan Hess, and visit art foundation owners, Dr Gene and Brian Sherman at home in Sydney. Elsewhere, discover the varied background of New Zealand’s Gidon Bing, and fly to Paris with Korean-born, Philippine-based textile designer, Eun Il Lee.

Habitus 05 explores some fantastic projects from the region including a terrace home in Singapore, a pavilion-style beach house in NSW, a contemporary tropical home in Malaysia, and the family home of New Zealand architect, Noel Lane. Before signing off, get a glimpse into Le Corbusier’s life via some recent publications, and visit the sights, sounds and tastes of Vietnam with celebrated chef, Luke Nguyen.

Habitus 04 brings together a diverse selection of personalities, this issue focussing on Australia and New Zealand.

Fashion designer, Alex Perry, and architect, John Wardle, are well known members of the Australian creative scene, but we are also happy to introduce Tim Fleming’s art, furniture and design, the textiles of Sydney trio, Sixhands, and the fine jewellery of New Zealand’s Joanna Campbell.

As well, Habitus explores a range of homes in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia and New Zealand, to offer ideas and inspiration for all kinds of living. Projects range from a curvaceous Corian creation on the Auckland harbour, to an addition to a family home in inner Sydney. We also compare two very different projects by burgeoning Melbourne architect, Jeremy Wolveridge.

Indulge in Habitus Issue 03 as we explore the region for design hunters of all kinds. In Australia we meet architectural photographer, John Gollings; a fashion designer at home – Jac Hunt of Jac + Jack; the partnership behind Adelaide gallery, Aptos Cruz; and artist/architect, Richard Goodwin.

We discover Singapore’s young creative blood in the form of fashion designer, Grace Tan, and graphic designer, Theseus Chan, and also pay homage to New Zealand’s Marshall Cook.

In this issue we visit residences in the bustle of Bangkok before dropping into Singapore where we visit some kampung houses, two projects by CSYA and venture into the home of Ministry of Design’s Colin and Joy Seah. Australian projects cross the landscape, from a lodge in Victoria’s mountain country, beachside residences in NSW, a suburban Melbourne house and two Queensland houses, including the spiritual home of artist, Tracey Moffat.

The second issue of Habitus includes conversations with New Zealand designer, David Trubridge, and Filipino Kenneth Cobonpue, and we look at the body of work of Malaysian architect, Kevin Low and Thai architect, Boonlert Hemvijitraphan.

Designers, Pierre and Charlotte Julien, talk to us about how they have sustained a successful partnership, both professionally and at home and we visit an artistic and cultural haven in Malaysia.

Our projects this issue carry us through Singapore to Bangkok, where a group of architects are experiencing their own design and exploring the concepts of living together, yet separately. We touch down briefly in New Zealand and visit a potter’s home and workshop, before immersing ourselves in a beautiful project by Australia's Glenn Murcutt and some stunning architecture in Tasmania.

As well as a serving of beautiful and functional products, Habitus 02 finds the kitchen trends of the future and receives a postcard from Berlin’s in between spaces.

The pages of the first issue of Habitus are graced with a collection of diverse design hunters from the region. We visit the home of landscape designer Daniel Baffsky and Sass & Bide fashion designer Sarah-Jane Clarke, and fashion designer, Akira Isogawa, talks to us about what inspires him.

We see how the art of creative couple, Ashika and Padma Ostapkowicz, are influenced by the landscape they live in, and we profile icons from South-East Asia such as Ernesto Bedmar and landscape architect, Ng Sek San.

The homes we venture into vary from a family home in Malaysia, a treehouse-inspired structure in Bangkok and compound-style housing across continents, to waterfront properties and suburban living in Sydney and a shophouse in Singapore.

This issue also brings you the Habitus selection of Milan 2008 and some picks from around the globe of products for living, working, playing, the outdoors, and children.
