A new series celebrating the alchemy of scent and season in a collection of delicious, seasonal recipes.

As we mark two decades of reimagining daily rituals, we sat down with New Zealand glass artist Kate Mitchell to talk about her start in the glass industry, the joy of colour, and the making of our special 20th anniversary collaboration.

To celebrate International Women’s Day, we spoke with the formidable New Zealand sisters Mimi and Sophie Gilmour - two women shaping Aotearoa’s hospitality landscape in distinct yet quietly interconnected ways.

For three decades, OSEA (Ocean. Sun. Earth. Atmosphere.) has been quietly redefining clean beauty with seaweed-infused skincare rooted in nature and ritual. We spoke with Jenefer Palmer, OSEA’s founder and Chief Seaweed Officer, about the brand’s origins, the influence of her family and the ocean, and what continues to inspire her vision today.

Katie Begbie is a lifestyle, fashion and interiors photographer with an instinct for capturing places through their quiet details and lived-in charm. Fresh from a long-awaited escape to Japan, she’s returned with a travel diary shaped by days spent tracing the country’s rich contrasts, from modernist architecture and meticulous design to slow, rural moments steeped in tradition.

Beauty writer and editor Lucy Slight has a refreshingly real approach to hair - think natural texture, low-maintenance styling, and a love of scent that turns everyday rituals into small moments of joy. We spoke with her about her hair icons, embracing her natural colour, and her simple yet effective routine.
