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.

An Itty Bitty Bit Part With A Mighty Impact

Light and delicate in appearance, the Bit Part collection plays a cameo role in any well-designed space, anchoring the room with pared-back beauty.


The Bit Part collection is one of sustainable, beautiful hardware that refocuses our attention on these small pieces as the point of sensory engagement.

They play a cameo role in a play, a small piece of the action vital to the narrative, colour and movement of the production. These cameo roles have special significance. While small in relation to the whole they stand out and matter deeply.

Despite their delicate aesthetic, there’s a fair bit of weight behind each Bit Part. Concentrating on pure materials – marble, brass, stainless steel and bronze – these bits and parts have minimal moving parts and are weighty and durable with a sense of timelessness, of permanence.

Designed and made locally, there is a great deal of pride in the manufacture of Bit Part. There is no artifice as these pieces are unfinished and will tarnish through touch and build up their own history.

While the core of the collection is solid marble and brass there is opportunity to play at the edges. Painted back plates in pink, blue and red, alongside the monochromes and metals, take on a charming geometry.

Refined and monumental in their own small way, each piece in the Bit Part collection is a singular object of beauty.
