An Architects Own House With a Tranquil Garden (House Tour)

- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2024
- Located in the northern suburbs of Melbourne and a short distance from the Yarra River, Arthur by Oscar Sainsbury Architects (OSA) is an architects own house that extends upon the ideas of family living and connection to nature. As the owner, architect and builder, OSA dances across the separate realms with ease in order to deliver a home that allows the family to grow in place. Following a desire to open up an architects own house to the outside, OSA uses contemporary methods of design, allowing for the family to easily manoeuvre about.
With the house tour of an architects own house beginning at the double-bricked façade, OSA has additionally maintained three of the original bedrooms, with two facing the street and one opening up to the rear decking. Designed to be the central part of the house, the kitchen is laid out to encourage flow and connection from the private quarters and into the public living spaces. Known to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, the owner and architect has incorporated functionality by allowing it to serve its purpose as well as be easy to live and entertain in.
As with most heritage homes, OSA faced the challenge of finding light within an architects own home. To fix this, the home is designed in a passive orientation, allowing for access to northern light as well as eastern and western sunlight. Saturated with natural light from morning to night, the home is given moments of softness and sometimes starker sunlight, depending on the time of day.
Focused on using timber as the championing material, OSA employs the material for framing, rafting as well as the pergola over the rear deck for added consistency throughout an architects own house. Chosen in part for its warmth, the timber was also employed for its robustness and user friendliness for the young family. Exuding a sense of ease, the house gives the owners a chance to live a relaxed way of life, with spaces that allow for contained living or expanded living as needed.

Finally, a home that looks like a 'home' rather than a museum.
Exactly
Plus 1
A proper Family HOME! The use of timber and with a look to the future and how the space will mature. The gardens, the vines. Somewhere where nothing is too precious or overdone. Simple, clean, strong and full of quality and fun! Love it! Thank you for sharing. How a family home should be.
Agree completely.
I love the idea of having an exterior island bench by the external kitchen window.
Brilliant design for the kitchen and its connection to the outside. Just so Original.
Finally I can say it: this is my favourite content of The Local Project! I recognise what the true values of a home are: humble, essential and functional. For me, this is true luxury: having everything without having to prove anything. I would like more examples of this type... Extra-expensive, glitzy houses are anachronistic, they always have been. For me, this is the way to design a house based on people's real needs and not on their vices that are nothing but abuses of power, where they often end up consuming land.
Well said. There is a particular very famous interior designer in my hometown who design for the super rich to show prove how rich they are, and I think his projects are horrendous.
Yeah right, from what I'm getting from the channel, the true values of a home on local project is white, Anglo, privileged (humbleness is well concealed with other factors).
The backyard is a gem.
Lovely. Definite “kitchen that opens to the central courtyard” love.
A beautiful and accessible home I feel I could actually get inspiration from! ❤
I can relate to this home, there is a realness to it.
The garden is a real feel-good oasis to switch off. 🌿
A family house/home that looks lived in! Beautiful work ❤
It really is!
Thank you. I would love to see more from this architect! This was done so well and in keeping for practicality with a great curve.
my god this is just beautiful
Stunning, yet also looks so warm and comfortable. Love the mix of nature, wood and brick
great artistic editing!
Really beautiful. One of the nicest family spaces I've ever seen in terms of light, functionality and materials.
The cinematography in these recent episodes seem to focus less on the architecture and more so on making these into aesthetic music videos. Macro shots on plants and products not unique to this house takes away from the story you are trying to tell.
I agree…
I do agree but at the same time I like this cinematic style. I think architectural audience here would be content if there would be few drawing plans showed.
Sadly I kind of agree. Usually these had a more calm and focused vibe that kind of gave the experience of how it would feel like to live here. I dont really get this experience in recent videos. Maybe the music and no ambient sound is the reason.
Look closely. It is a feeling that is being expressed in the filming. There is nothing generic here. We are invited to get an overview of each structure and project and then explore further if we choose. Remember these are architecturally detailed spaces that have taken time to draft and bring into fruition. We are being introduced to some of the finest architects and firms. What more can one ask for.
@@Bluewaterpinessantarosabeach I get your point. But then I have to say I dont feel like this video really gives a good impression of how this space feels like to be in, with no nature sound, no sense of calm, but only upbeat music. In previous videos I got much more of a sense of how the spaces felt.
I love this house design!
Excellently warm interior
This is a dream.
Hi... I am an artist / designer from India , and I absolutely agree with the owner / architect , that a space designed should have a sense of ease...as well as ease of movement. And the design of the house totally reflects this. I also liked the consistent use of natural materials like timber throughout the entire house , and the very intelligent use of any given space fo multiple purposes... BRAVO ❗👏👏
Excellent work, as always. Thank you. Cheers!
What a beautiful home. I absolutely love this. I would echo some other comments I've seen about the video itself: it's beautifully shot no doubt, but I think it needs less emphasis on the aspirational/lifestyle shots and more on the nitty gritty of the building itself. Let us see more of the rooms and the floorplan. Show us how one room flows into the next and use angles that give a better idea of the dimensions of the place.
Great! ✨
This home is extremely motivating to one of my own projects. Thank You.
We're glad to have provided some inspiration for you 🙌
очень приятный теплый и уютный
Очень уютный практичный проект спасибо
I love the bench connected to the kitchen, except those chairs look too high and uncomfortable. Also, the song from Cheap Monk by the end fits really well in the video.
it is nice
I kinda like it when the the cinematography changes with the beat; don't overdo it though.
all those glass panels, especially in the kitchen...but I guess that's not a problem when you can hire a cleaning crew to mantein every spotless...
I’m enjoying these videos but I wish you’d show more of the actual property, what does it actually look like.
Whats with the sound track? I think i prefer it without any music
Love all the wood. What sort of wood was used? Ausy Ash?
Very homey
This one is *GEORGEOUS!* ✨
_"the sense of ease"_ really capturesits essence for me - great videography and editing as well! 👌🏻😘
I'm curious about the music. Can I buy it somewhere? It's fantastic
🥰🥰🥰
Im sure it does well for the algorithm, but i would honestly like a little more architecture and little less music video from this channel. I have virtually no idea how this house is laid out or how the spaces interact with each other, instead the time was spent editing chairs in and out of frame and showing his childrens Lego.
It would've been nice to see more of this beautiful home instead of the just bits and pieces of it...
Does anyone know which plant it is that's used in the verandah trellis?
Who is credited with the background song please?
No bugs? No snakes? No spiders?
NO SCREENS.
Isn't that kitchen idea similar to the one in Troye Sivan's house?
La casa es interesante y la forma de enseñar actual te hace dejar el video. Era mi canal favorito y ahora ya no.
Give to me please
Kids' hair needs a brush tho
Nice garden shame about the house
Land of the Wiradjuri people? No, it's the land of King Charles.
WTF is all this "it's on the land of" stuff. No, it's not, any more than it's on the land of the people who used to own the section you built the house on.
I'm kind of annoyed by people making reference to the tribe that settled the land before them. Like, if one of the descendants rings this guy's doorbell and says "I want the land back", is he just going to be like "All right, let me get the kids" and leave? No. He might invite the guy in for a cup of coffee, maybe offer him a few bucks, but in the end, this guy will not give the land back, and, if pressed, he will be every bit as nasty as his colonizing forebears. So, why bother?
Maybe it's to recognise that the land was stolen? And we pay our respects to those dispossessed in past by naming their land. It's not "woke": it's respect
@@z3lda808 the guy talking about “woke” is on some other shit from what I said. It’s all well and good to recognize that the land was stolen, but now the guy in the video talking about tribal land is the owner on the piece of paper. He can recognize that it was stolen, but is he going to do anything about it? Is he going to give it back? No. Is he going to pay reparations? No. If there were going to be any claim made against the land by the descendants of its rightful owner, he would fight it. If these land acknowledgements were legally binding, these guys wouldn’t make a peep. I would like to see the wrongs righted, but these are empty gestures.
Home is meh
