The 'Future' Issue

Habitus #64 Welcome to the HABITUS ‘Future’ and ‘Habitus House of the Year’ Issue. We are thrilled to have interior designer of excellence, Brahman Perera, as Guest Editor and to celebrate his Sri Lankan heritage through an interview with Palinda Kannangara and his extraordinary Ek Onkar project – divine! Thinking about the future, we look at the technology shaping our approach to sustainability and the ways traditional materials are enjoying a new-found place in the spotlight. Profiles on Yvonne Todd, Amy Lawrance, and Kallie Blauhorn are rounded out with projects from Studio ZAWA, SJB, Spirit Level, STUDIOLIVE, Park + Associates and a Lake House made in just 40 days by the wonderful Wutopia Lab, plus the short list for the Habitus House of the Year!

We’re heading to Milan – are you?

Be sure to let us know if you’ll be travelling to Italy as we prepare our extensive coverage and event plan!


Last year was special, but in 2025 we’re aiming to set a whole new benchmark for coverage of the world’s most important design event. Milan Design Week is set to take place in April and our team will be there on the ground once again, visiting as many installations, exhibitions, launches and parties as humanly possible.

In 2024, we teamed up with V-ZUG to put on a memorable event at the historic Pinacoteca di Brera. Hosted by Habitus Living Editor, Timothy Alouani-Roby – who will be there again in 2025 – last year’s panel comprised Charlotte Wilson, Senior Associate and Head of Interiors at SJB Sydney; Jo Lawless, interior designer and Director at Lawless & Meyerson; Andrea Lucena-Orr, Dulux Colour and Communications Manager; and Martin von Freeden, Head of Corporate Design at V-ZUG. The panellists for 2025 will be announced soon, so stay tuned for full information!

There will be more news soon on this year’s iteration of the event, always sure to be a focal point for the strong Antipodean contingent travelling to Milan. Stand by for announcements on speakers, panellists, venue, date and more!

Alongside a range of articles, we summarised proceedings in The Milan Edit 2024, as well as providing fun video coverage across socials as we traversed the city. In 2025, we’ll be putting even more emphasis on the daily video coverage through our Instagram channel as we aim to take enthusiasts from our region as close as possible to the European action.

So, make sure you let us know if you’ll be travelling to Milan – we’ll make sure you’re on the invite list for our exclusive events, and there might just be opportunities for further collaboration (or at least a cameo appearance on video).

Get in touch and let us know about your plans here!
