Issue 61

Vintage Modern Issue

The breadth and scope of Habitus has always been extraordinary. With how we live at heart of every issue, we have stepped it up with Guest Editor David Flack of Flack Studio shaking the ‘how’ and looking at new ways to make a house a home. With Vintage Modern as the issues theme, we look at the way iconic design has stayed with us, how daring pieces from the past can add the wow factor and how architecture and good design defy the pigeon hole of their era.

THE HOMES YOU WON’T BELIEVE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY

Other

These homes may be cosy but what they’re lacking in space they more than make up for in imagination and innovation.

Eco Smart Studio LEAD
It’s hard to believe this studio apartment is just 400-square-feet and located within the beating heart of Hong Kong, on Hollywood Road, Central. Bespoke furniture and cabinetry cleverly maximise and conceal storage while double-glazed windows keep the buzz of the city outside. A rooftop terrace provides a place to relax, meditate, exercise or enjoy enviable views of the city’s skyline.

Unfurled House
A Federation façade on one end and a modern, monochromatic structure on the other. Cellular rooms and various indoor-outdoor connections make up the Unfurled House. Christopher Polly Architect has created a series of conflicting – and yet unbroken – spaces within the Unfurled House.

High House
Tim Ross may have likened the humble terrace to creepy-crawlies calling them the cockroaches of the design world – the impression being that they just won’t die – earlier this year at MID, but he obviously hadn’t seen the High House by Dan Gayfer Design – an inner-city terrace dreams are made of.
