How This Minimalist Home Is a Blank Canvas for the Family and their Art

- Located in Melbourne's inner-north, Ross is a bold architectural home that Ola Architecture Studio designed for a family of five, plus Woody the cocker spaniel and their art collection. Having lived in a converted warehouse previously, the clients wanted to maintain that sense of space but have a strong indoor/outdoor connection.
The clients wanted a home that was simple with clean lines and a stark materiality palette but with some warmth. Although bold from the street, the contemporary home respects and responds to the heritage of Northcote through form and scale. The form echos the old-fashioned gable roof, which can be seen along the street.
Ola Architecture Studio kept the interior minimalist, using a neutral material palette of concrete, black steel and glass. The minimalist interior provides a blank canvas for the owners to display their modern art.
The black exterior is a stark contrast to the almost 'white cube' gallery, with black angled steel layered all around the home. With the more private areas of the home upstairs, such as the bedrooms and private decks, the steel is spaced to allow sun into the house while maintaining privacy. You are gleefully unaware of what lies behind the black exterior from the street.
Ola Architecture Studio set out to create a home that was a blank canvas and responded to the clients' love of minimalism but still had moments of joy and warmth throughout while connected to the garden, light and breezes. As a result, it is a "home for the clients, a place to live, and to celebrate life."

Love it when they include the pets as clients.
Although I haven't featured them on the channel, I've seen homes with the design facilitating the pet, such as pet doors into dedicated spaces under stairs or through to the laundry. If we ever have the opportunity to design/build our own home, it would definitely be designed to accommodate our rabbits.
At first the black facade is a bit imposing but seeing the trees and water nearby actually highlights how it fits into the land. The interesting thing about this house is typically a black themed home can seem overly masculine - this one doesn’t. Thanks for sharing!
The landscape and context does soften what could have been a very hard and imposing home.
it looks surreal
what I enjoy most about this house is the size. Many homes I see with similar design seem way too big and lack intimacy, just big for the sake of being big. The size of the outdoor space fits so well with the connection to the indoors.
Overall, the home is on the larger size, but you're right in saying that it could have been very easier for it to be much, much bigger.
I like the house, but talking about sustainability? Really? That living room with glass on 3 sides and minimal roof overhangs can not prevent excessive solar gain in the summer. And all that aluminium cladding has a ridiculous embedded carbon footprint. Just adding a few solar panels does not make it sustainable.
A very considered argument that is difficult for me to refute.
The house sticks out like a sore thumb, the house does not harmoniously blend into the existing neighborhood. The house screams..."LOOK AT ME...LOOK AT ME!".
Yeah, It does stand alone among it’s neighbours that’s for sure. I’m pretty sure the surrounding houses will be replaced by contemporary design as the years go by. I like it.
Such a bold modern building in a heritage overlay area. I am very interested to know if the owners/architects faced any challenges getting their plans through the local council. Did it add to any delays for this build?
So there were no challenges, the council was on board with their proposal from the get-go. I know, it seems strange!
looks like gru's house if he's a minimalist
good
Well, I could be wrong, but I believe diversity is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.

Have a favourite part of the home?
Oh that black industrial elevation, that looks so odd but - hey - the form is so respectful to the neighbouring "heritage". Nice upstairs with fun colours and great light and depth of sloped ceiling(can't wait for spiderwebs and other bugs there). Downstairs... well this space doesn't feel like home. It's like a render, a real 3D visualisation of a project of some very pricy lounge office/gallery/showroom space. Dining area is like a conference room. And all is assembled with fancy modern furniture with strange sculptures that aren't even nice to look at them. Oh, what a great client 🤭
