I still get excited that we have the privilege of seeing inside Australia’s most beautiful homes. I admire the work of Yasmine Ghoniem of YSG Studio and feel that our cover house designed by her has the right feel to start 2023 – optimistic, glamorous and fun. We are all on the move again and everywhere I go, whether at events or travelling, I can see that people are excited to make real-life connections again and dress up. I feel this also extends to our houses, whether for ourselves or guests to enjoy. One residence I know that is always perfectly poised, presented, and ready to host guests and family is Rosedale Farm, the home of our style director-at-large and editor of the Chic Agenda pages, Steve Cordony (pictured with…

The exhibition explores the artist’s 250 works – and through the recollections of Henry Gillespie, Australian editor of Interview magazine (left) in the 80s – revealing Warhol’s image-making as candid, collaborative and connected to his social whirl.

POWELL & GLENN is a Melbourne practice with the equivalent of architectural royalty embedded in its heritage. The pivotal figure was founder Allan Powell who was something of a maverick in his approach to life and work, refusing to align with the prevailing architectural doctrine of the day he took a job with the society architect Guilford Bell (1912-1992) whose clients were Australia’s elite, among them the Fairfax and Myer families. Bell designed modernist houses where an intense focus on symmetry married with sequences of interior and exterior spaces: internal courtyards, walled walkways and swimming pools central to the house plan. While Powell learnt from Bell, drawn to his sophisticated and worldly manner and his ability to create poetic moments with light and shadow, he was very much his own man…
