For me, the real kitchens of passionate cooks are where all the details and inspiration are. I love taking a voyeuristic peek into the spaces that home cooks work in every day – checking out their bench storage, material choices, appliance biases, tricky taps and what’s in the third drawer down (tea towels for me). So, imagine how thrilled we were to be invited into the home kitchens of three truly excellent cooks; Karen Martini, Khanh Ong and the Manfredi women (designer Julie Manfredi Hughes and her singer daughter, Izzi). We also have a lovely selection of standout recipes from Karen’s newest book, COOK, on page 136. All the kitchens in this issue are gorgeous and full of clever ideas, but I especially enjoyed spending the day with Izzi and…

Asher Stoltz says that when he and his wife Gina decided to build a house for themselves and their two sons, Tokyo and Ziggy, they actually wanted something more than a conventional home. No surprise then, that there is something undeniably artistic – verging on magical – about the little brick box they built on a former tennis court in Johannesburg’s leafy suburb of Orchards, at the end of a long, panhandle driveway. The 10m x 10m cube, punctured by a scattering of irregularly spaced and unusually shaped doors and windows (strips, arches and squares) was nicknamed the Shapesorter House by the couple and their architect, Gregory Katz, because of its resemblance to the classic children’s toy. It’s not hard to imagine that the raised, circular, black-mosaic swimming pool –…

Why would you use panelling in a bathroom space? Wall panelling is a great, cost-effective way to inject textural interest and personality into any interior space. While they can be applied in any room of the house, the Surround by Laminex wall linings are ideally suited to a bathroom as they offer a more convenient alternative to tiles. As the panels are much larger than tiles, they are much faster to install, so you can enjoy savings on both time and money, thanks to the reduced labour hours required. The panels are also incredibly hard-wearing, making them the perfect addition to high-traffic areas like the bathroom. Providing the ultimate design flexibility, Surround by Laminex panels are available in 13 profiles to suit any home style or design preference. After installation,…

There was a time when having your own wellness space was considered a rare luxury. These days, meditation spaces, Pilates zones and infrared saunas are more accessible to the average homeowner than ever. Alex Tyson, CEO of infrared sauna retailer Found–Space sheds some light on why. “Our infrared sauna is a self-standing cabin that contains infrared heaters, and the light and heat from these create an invigorating experience at a more comfortable temperature than a traditional sauna – without expensive running costs or maintenance,” he says. “Infrared light penetrates your skin, causing a gentle cardiovascular workout as your heartbeat quickens and you begin to sweat. For those who are interested in mindfulness, the infrared sauna can become a space to retreat and meditate – or a place to escape away…

the brief Brendan Robbins of Brendan Mark Studio was asked to design three rental properties in one unique Sydney building – with different styles and finishes. His vision for apartment two was bold, hence the hand-painted finishes of the Shaker-profile kitchen cabinetry in Blue Rhapsody, a deep navy by Dulux that works with a range of finishes. “I don’t like white kitchens,” says Brendan. “Why not have something different and create a sense of joy that lets whoever lives here know that time and consideration have gone into the design, look and function of the space?” the materials “One of my favourite elements in this kitchen is the use of symmetry, with the tall joinery on either side of the cooktop,” Brendan shares. “It houses the integrated fridge and pocket…

Cook//presenter//author The two-time MasterChef and Survivor alum has carved out a successful career for himself as a cookbook author, business partner at Melbourne’s The George On Collins, host of the podcast Feastpod and, most recently, he’s added lunchbox aficionado to the list. Here, Khanh shares what he loves about the heart of his home. Q What do you like about this kitchen? Is it a space where you can create lots of amazing dishes like the ones we saw you making on MasterChef? A I love this kitchen. It’s smaller than my past ones, but it’s just made me more organised. I have to really think about what I need when I cook, which means more efficiency and creativity. Q What appliances do you have in the kitchen and why?…

Sprawled across 3000 hectares, Cobram Estate at Boundary Bend is one of Australia’s largest olive plantations. Home to 1.3 million trees that deliver five major oil varieties, the business was founded by two Australian farmers, Paul Riordan and Rob McGavin, who planted their first tree in 1998. Since then, the company has gone on to employ more than 130 people across groves in Victoria and California. Here, the olives are washed, crushed, blended and bottled within six hours of being picked, delivering the fresh ‘tree to table’ experience that our leading extra-virgin olive-oil (EVOO) producer has come to be known for. But how do you, as a consumer, learn to identify a premium oil? Cobram Estate’s joint-CEO Leandro Ravetti explains. What makes a good EVOO? “There are two main indicators…

What are the most important factors when considering stone for your bathroom? Before incorporating natural stone into your design, it’s important to understand how it performs. Like any natural material, stone is porous. It absorbs moisture from its surroundings, causing its appearance to change over time. This can be part of its appeal, of course; stone surfaces will age with your home, developing a characterful patina that chronicles their use. However, to prevent damage or decay, it’s crucial to seal the stone before it’s used. While this won’t make your surface impervious to damage, or provide indefinite protection, it can mitigate the risk of a permanent blemish from most substances. Depending on the type of sealant you use, we recommend reapplying every few years. It is also essential to ensure…

BuildHer Collective founder Rebeka Morgan is at buildhercollective.com.au Our love of minimalism has meant that many elements have been removed from homes in the pursuit of extra space and a more open feel. Bathrooms are no exception. We want them to look as spacious as possible, so many new homes and renovations have already incorporated the wet-room bathroom style and its popularity is growing. For the uninitiated, a wet bathroom is one where the shower isn’t fully enclosed. That means your spatial planning needs to be spot-on otherwise everything in the vicinity will get wet in a way that is annoying and time-consuming to deal with. As many of us have already discovered, bathroom layouts can be challenging to get right with traditional elements and set-ups. The major bonus of…

It’s designed to host both rowdy indoor/outdoor dinners and civilised champagne breakfasts with her family. Here, she and Izzi talk us through what they love about it. You were saying you have brought some of the elements of hospitality from your previous experience in working kitchens and fine dining. Which made it into your home kitchen? J Well, I suppose that zoning is a big part of that. Understanding how the kitchen works, how the work flows, how you organise the space. So, there’s that element, but there’s also how I use fixtures…

“We managed the project as owner-builders and I visited the site every day. My dad is a builder so I’ve grown up around building”RENEE RICHARDS, OWNER/DESIGNER What do you do when you spend time, effort and a substantial sum of money to create your dream home – in a street and suburb that you love – only to find that it feels a little tight when your family expands? It’s a problem faced by many, including Renee and Owen Richards, who adored the innovative restoration of their Victorian cottage in the Melbourne suburb of Northcote. Others loved it, too, with the house – designed by James Goodlet of Torquay-based Altereco Design – winning a Residential Design award in the Building Designers Association of Victoria’s 2013 Building Design Awards. But with…

How can people inject personality into their bathrooms with tiles? Personality is a reflection of style. To determine how to add personality, an individual needs to consider what style or palette they gravitate towards. Tiles are highly versatile, coming in all shapes, colours and textures to suit a variety of styles. Personality can be added through bold feature tiles or calming tones, depending on the individual. Are there benefits to installing a fully tiled bathroom? Having a bathroom fully tiled creates a cohesive look and reduces maintenance with ease of cleaning and general robustness. What are the emerging trends in bathroom tiles? While trends are constantly changing and evolving, I have noticed a shift towards more unusual shapes and patterns. There’s a lot more emphasis on creating bespoke bathrooms and…

Sustainability shouldn’t be a buzzword, but in the business of beauty it has become one. Recyclable packaging, carbon offsets and conscious farming are all loaded terms being thrown around, but with little to no regulation, it’s hard for consumers to know what to believe (and what they really mean). Fortunately, there’s a simple term for this issue. Coined ‘greenwashing’, it describes the confusing marketing that has us convinced we’re making better choices, which may not entirely be the case. Of course, all sustainably minded change is good change, but in the wake of the global pandemic and climate crises, it’s essential to celebrate and support the beauty brands actually putting in the work, and being transparent at every point in their journey. We profile four of our favourites. Habitual Beauty…

the brief Owned by a Sydney family, this kitchen lacked the period detail that the rest of the house enjoyed. Danielle Bonello-Dunsford took up the challenge of restoring some of that to the kitchen and butler’s pantry while also creating a lighter, larger, more functional space. She pinched a few metres from an adjacent bedroom, blocked off a window with a clothesline view and oriented the new windows and skylights to the north. the design “Adding a new VJ panelled bulkhead to the ceiling defines the kitchen zone,” says Danielle, who chose leathered Super White Dolomite marble for the surfaces underneath. “Its textured veins add luxury and fill the volume of the space so well.”  Danielle Victoria Design is at daniellevictoria.com.au the curves While the arches and soft, rounded forms…

Karen Martini Chef//food writer//TV presenter The author of three cookbooks reveals kitchen secrets such as why she needs four ovens. Q What appliances did you choose for this kitchen? A It was always a dream of mine to have a Wolf oven and stove. All the appliances here are Wolf. We have a double oven with gas burners, an iron flat top and grill. It’s all modular, so if you are talking to Wolf directly, as I was, you can mix and match to suit your needs. I also have a combination oven (convection and steam) and an induction top with three burners. Both convection ovens are about 120cm wide. Well worth it for me as I do a lot of baking, testing and cooking out of this kitchen. We…
