For A Study of Ideas, we step into Samantha McIntyre's Melbourne home, where her ceramics practice sits quietly alongside everyday life — what began as a class now a source of both creativity and calm.
For A Study of Ideas, we sit down with the creatives whose ideas shape the McMullin x Assembly Label collaboration. Among them is Clark Kent Koga, a Sydney-based strategist working across data, creativity and culture.
A Study of Ideas explores the space between thought and making — visiting the creatives whose work brings the McMullin x Assembly Label collaboration to life. Among them are Matt and James, whose Melbourne-based practice works between design and technology.
Writer and creator Lucy Christopher invites a considered approach to living. We visited her home to discover the objects, rituals and spaces that quietly shape everyday life.
Little James is a study in restraint and clarity, where every detail has been carefully considered to support a quieter way of living. In conversation with Studio Carson Kelly, we explore the thinking behind the home they have built from material choices to the rhythm of light and space.
Tucked into the canopy of Church Point, the home of Laura Dewit and Ben Whittaker unfolds quietly among the trees. Elevated and immersed in nature, their recently renovated “Tree House” is less about statement and more about feeling. A home shaped by light, materiality, and a deep respect for its surroundings.
Created in dialogue with Hakusho, Lucy Anderson’s exclusive works bring warmth, imperfection, and expressive mark-making to the collection’s clean, sculptural lines.
Striking form, pure materiality and functionality are at the heart of the Hakusho Collection. Stainless steel is reimagined into soft geometry, sculptural lines and a quietly sophisticated presence that shapes the rhythm of a room. It is the modern neutral: crisp, cool and effortlessly adaptable. The finish you choose, brushed or polished, changes everything.
Rooted in a love of design, local craftsmanship, and the belief that enduring objects enrich the way we live, Australian design practice Lette crafts solid timber furniture made to be used and cherished for generations to come. Thoughtfully designed in Torquay and handcrafted in Melbourne, each piece reflects founder Lou’s intentional rejection of the ‘fast-furniture’ movement, favouring quality and creativity in its place.
Jade Gillett and Goldie (Brent Gold) are the co-founders and creative directors behind RAINBOW STUDIOS, an ever evolving creative, two level showroom/space in Darlinghurst that lives somewhere between an art gallery, event venue and a creative playground. Created as a home for expression, collaboration and curation, it’s a growing platform that supports artists, designers and brands to create meaningful cultural experiences. Together, the pair lead the creative direction across everything, from visual identity and interiors to exhibitions and immersive events.
We visited interior stylist and newly published author Kerrie-Ann Jones at her Sydney pop-up, a space that blends mid-century design with sculptural objects and quiet moments of joy. With a sharp eye for curation and an unmistakable sense of soul, Kerrie-Ann speaks to the power of storytelling, personal style, and creating spaces that reflect the way we truly live. From her book Curated Style to her growing gallery-store hybrid, Kerrie-Ann shares what’s inspiring her now, and why timeless interiors begin with intention. Come inside.
Tanchen is the considered collaboration between Sanchia Tan and Amber Chen — two creatives with a shared vision for elevating the everyday through thoughtful, tactile design. With backgrounds spanning textiles, fine art, and spatial design, the duo explores the intersection of function and form, creating objects that bring quiet beauty into the home. Their practice centres on textiles as sculptural elements — pieces that hold space, carry weight, and invite touch. Each work speaks to their shared appreciation for materiality, restraint, and craft.
