Kaiko Design Interiors was featured in the February 2025 issue of Better Homes and Gardens, one of Australia's most widely read home and lifestyle publications. The feature explored how considered interior design can shape not just how a space looks, but how it makes you feel — the emotional dimension of a well-designed home.

Nicholas Kaiko spoke about his approach to designing interiors that energise and invigorate: the role of colour, light and material in creating spaces that support the way people actually live. Projects featured include the Hill House and Darlinghurst Apartment, two of the studio's most recognised residential commissions.

Kaiko Design Interiors was featured in the January 2024 issue of LivingETC, the internationally published interiors title. The feature profiled Nicholas Kaiko's own home and studio project in Sydney's Waterloo — the Danks Street Home and Studio — exploring how a designer approaches the challenge of creating a space that is both a creative workplace and a personal sanctuary.

The project demonstrates many of the studio's signature qualities: a bold, considered colour palette, layered materials and the kind of detail that only emerges from meticulous documentation and a genuine understanding of how a space will be lived in day to day.

Kanebridge Quarterly Editor in Chief Robyn Willis profiled Nicholas Kaiko in this in-depth feature exploring the studio's design philosophy, approach to colour and the thinking behind dynamic eclecticism — the design principle at the heart of Kaiko Design Interiors' work.

Nic spoke candidly about his rejection of trend-driven, safe interiors in favour of spaces that are genuinely expressive and deeply personal. The feature draws on the studio's residential portfolio as well as Nic's earlier career in luxury hotel and hospitality design, which continues to inform the rigour and spatial thinking behind every project.

Kaiko Design Interiors appeared in the Winter 2023 issue of Kanebridge Quarterly, with a feature on the Danks Street Home and Studio project in Sydney's Waterloo. The article explored how Nicholas Kaiko approached the design of his own live/work space — a project that allowed the studio's philosophy to be expressed without the constraints of a client brief.

The result is one of the studio's most discussed projects: a space that balances the practical demands of a working design studio with the comfort and personality of a private home, unified by a confident colour-led palette and precise material choices.

Kaiko Design Interiors was featured in the February/March 2023 issue of Belle Magazine, one of Australia's most prestigious interior design publications. The feature focused on the Darlinghurst Apartment — a compact inner-city apartment transformed through bold colour choices, considered material layering and the kind of spatial thinking that makes a smaller home feel generous rather than constrained.

Nicholas Kaiko discussed the project's design approach and the challenge of creating an interior that feels both luxurious and genuinely liveable within the constraints of an existing apartment footprint.

The Hill House project by Kaiko Design Interiors was featured in LivingETC's May 2022 issue. Writer Karine Monie spoke with Nicholas Kaiko about the project — a boldly conceived residential interior where vivid hues, curvilinear forms and graphic black and white references draw on the language of 1960s modernism.

The Hill House remains one of the studio's most celebrated projects, demonstrating the depth of design thinking that goes into a Kaiko Design Interiors commission — from the spatial planning and architectural interventions through to the furniture selections and final decoration.
