Or in other words - as with every trend - err on the side of restraint to avoid looking like your home is stuck in a time warp (that is not retro cool). The same can be said for teenage boys and their penchant for rolling their jeans up and wearing white socks underneath (like Steve Urkel) That does not even look good now - let alone in 7 years time.*

Editor’s Letter
I have to admit the making of our first ever Est Kitchen and Bathroom edition has been quite a revelation. In our search for ‘what’s hot’ for the rooms that suck the bejesus out of even the healthiest of renovation budgets, we were quick to discover, overwhelmingly, that timber really is the material of the moment - if not decade.
Given that my role as editor of a design magazine is to seek out the latest and greatest design on the market, it is then only natural to expect that I would have seen more than my fair share of kitchens and bathrooms over the years. The search for what’s new always has me coming back to my personal lineup of design favourites, with those that I love staying with me as if seemingly untied to and particular trend, but yet remaining still very much ‘current’ in style.
While timber is certainly ‘on trend’ at the moment, and I personally am drawn to nature as a must have component in nearly every situation (blame it on the country connection), it’s the way that it is used and applied to a scheme that will determine its longevity in terms of the designs relevance.

back on the radar. Wherever you look, from denim to plaid, there’s a reminder that blue is for boys, but

Meet Lucy Marczyk from Nexus Designs ...Most of my work involves designing residential interiors: people’s home environments. I also design apartments and work with unique and challenging interiors. for example, I’m finishing up my first boat interior and I love the lifestyle shift that happens with people when they’re around water – I try to take a lead from that relaxed emotion and feed that into the design.
One could describe my work as sleek & contemporary, with a balance of nature & tech.
I love france. Old and new. Bohemian and couture. It’s my kind of mix of lifestyles.
I love food, and the way in which Melbourne is developing our foodie culture is right up my alley. fine dining in casual, unassuming spaces. I also love fashion.
A few random things I’m into:
T-shirts with the perfect amount of stretch & slouch.
The uniform of casual effortlessness.
Beige on Beige, Stripes and Pairs.

oUtSide the Boxfor architect Steven Whiting, mastering the
redesign of older style homes to meet modern day lifestyle demands has led him to become one of the most popular architects to ‘Pin’ on the web. With wife Carole working alongside him on this Middle Park home in Melbourne,
it’s not hard to see why the ‘Whiting Signature Style’ of a classic, contemporary aesthetic
in various tones of white, pale grey and charcoal has taken the design-loving Pinterest
community by storm.
PRODUCTION & WORDS Sian MacPherson
PHOTOGRAPHY Mark Lobo
Downsizing from a large family home in the Melbourne bayside suburb of Brighton called for a radical change in living environment for the Whiting’s client.
Armed with a brief requesting a redesign of the original Edwardian ‘city townhouse’, Steven and Carole reconfigured the traditional style home to allow for a variety of options and ease of entertaining for both extended family and friends.
With the main renovation taking place toward the back of the house, the kitchen and living areas were given an overhaul to create a space that allows for both large scale, and intimate gatherings.
Raised clerestory windows added in the dining area help frame and extend the views from the entrance hall down to the centre of the house, while also functioning as a sun trap in the winter and allowing the heat to escape in the summer.
In the kitchen, the designers have successfully created a beautiful yet subtle feature of the cabinetry and work spaces. It does not look like a utilitarian kitchen in the traditional sense due to the well-hidden appliances and inner machinations.
“We wanted to breakdown the contemporary kitchen look,” Carole explains in reference to the new take on the kitchen ‘family dining table’, a bench height, stone topped timber table that serves as both kitchen bench for the cook and an informal gathering place for visitors.
The masterpiece of the adjoining laundry space concealed within the kitchen area are the door panels that open out and lock-off to create an enclosed space for the laundry while simultaneously screening it off from the living area.
A yoga and meditation room with storage was a ‘must have’ for the client so Steven cleverly designed extra walk-in storage space by pushing the exterior wall out to the boundary and forming an add on box to utilise the dead space that runs to the adjoining lane-way.
At the front of the house the master bedroom sits across the hall from the yoga room. Here Whiting again put his space creating genius to work by inserting a boxed robe as a room divider
GRäSSHOPPAfloor Lamp
of sorts, effectively creating a spine for the ensuite and robe and allowing for the creation of a powder-room for guests with a concealed toilet and a shower.
With the outside replanted with a small, low maintenance veggie patch and garden a deck that flows on from the kitchen breakfast bar, this relatively compact home has become an entertainer’s dream thanks to the Whiting’s talent for creating options that sit outside the square.

SALT & PEPPER MIX
MAKES 1½ CUPS
50g sichuan peppercorns
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
2 star anise
1 piece cassia bark
5 dried small red chillies
250g (2 cups) sea salt
Combine the sichuan peppercorns, cloves, coriander and star anise in a bowl and cover with water. Drain immediately. (This helps to cook them evenly all the way through without the outside burning.)
Dry-roast the spices in a heavy-based saucepan over a low heat, stirring continuously, until they have dried out and become fragrant, for about 8–10 minutes. Add the chillies and continue to dry-roast, stirring continuously, for a further 2–3 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool.
Add the salt, mix thoroughly and grind in a spice or coffee grinder to a fine powder. Store in an airtight container for 4 weeks.
SALT & PEPPER TOfU
SERvES 4
250g silken tofu, cut into 6 pieces
60ml (¼ cup) fish sauce
60g (½ cup) tapioca flour
500ml (2 cups) canola oil for deep frying, plus extra 1½ tablespoons
1 teaspoon salt & pepper mix
3cm piece fresh ginger, peeled and julienned
1 spring onion (scallion), cut into 2cm lengths
4 Chinese broccoli (gai lan) stems, cut to 3cm pieces
1½ tablespoons Chinese rice wine
1½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
60ml (¼ cup) chicken stock
1 teaspoon caster (superfine) sugar
½ long red chilli, julienned, to garnish
Dip the tofu in the fish sauce, then dust in the tapioca flour to coat.
Heat the oil in a wok or large heavy-based saucepan to 160ºC (320ºf), or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil turns brown in 25–30 seconds. Deep-fry the tofu until golden and crispy, for about 6–8 minutes. Drain on paper towel, then dust in the salt & pepper mix. Pour off the frying oil from the wok.
To continue preparing the dish, heat 1. tablespoons fresh oil in the wok over a medium–high heat and stir-fry the ginger for about 30 seconds. Add the spring onion and Chinese broccoli and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes, then pour in the Chinese cooking wine and boil, stirring, for 30 seconds to deglaze the wok. Stir in the soy and oyster sauces, chicken stock and sugar, and cook for 2–3 minutes.
Arrange the stir-fried vegetable mixture on a serving plate and place the crisp tofu to the side or on another plate. Garnish the vegetables with the chilli.
