I'm thinking about Australia again today, and it's not just because we somehow ended up with yet another dump of snow yesterday (ugh). Nope, snow besides, it was because an e-mail popped up from Andrew Maynard Architects, whose Tattoo House I'd researched for Canadian House & Home's Trendwatch page. The firm's latest project, the Vader House, is an extension on a Victorain terraced home in Fitzroy; a boho neighbourhood in Melbourne - and - it's pretty darned fabulous.
Take a look below of the space and let me know what you think (I know I could move right in). There's obviously a good reason why Dwell called him "One of Australia's most exciting young architects." For more background on the Vader House read the Architect's Statement here, and click here to check out other projects. [Images: Peter Bennetts]
Blurgh! Apologies that the images had disappeared for a while- A little online housework to the blog's file storage messed things up for a bit!
