Robin Boyd's Bridge House 

1/18/2015

 
If I didn't already have a million reasons why I want to visit Australia, this 1950s Bridge House would be reason enough for me. Designed by the legendary Robin Boyd, the house got a face lift along with this article in Vogue Living.

Boyd designed two elliptical steel trusses — engineered by Bill Irwin to sit astride the old creek bed and support two longitudinal window-walls (a revolutionary system he developed with Stegbar) — to be arranged in diverging lines that both created a wedge-shaped plan and maximized internal exposure to the exterior’s established trees.-  Vogue Australia 
Just a little international modernism to round out the weekend.
