    I went past today and I bloody love the concrete block out the front. There should be more giving back to the street. What a lovely gesture.

    Loved it, great to hear Architects talk through their work whilst using it! Architects showing us what they've done and why - rather than just uploading some nice parti diagrams or photographs and moving onto the next project

    Very nice..😊made me smile!! My grandies would love this place. I am old but I would even like a slide from upstairs to downstairs. A swing inside would be great too. Old doesn't mean boring! Love the storage under stairs like a tiny home has.

    I walk past this place daily. I was always curious about what the rest of the design and layout is like since very little of it is visible from the road. I suspected it would be something special. It's very satisfying to get the chance to peak inside. This is very inspiring and thank you for contributing to the creativity in the area.

    .... we take fun really seriously ...anybody
    that's not having fun he's wasting their time ..."
    epitomises my very take on life right there too ....
    from my 2 favourite quotes from Charles Eames - 'Take your pleasure seriously "
    & Ben & Jerry's - "If it's not fun, why do it?"
    Awesome Video (editing & production ... script & actor!? too hahaha) ...
    and yes I'd also like to live here too ! :-D
    and i wasn't expecting that "450" at the front of the house ...
    can appreciate it does give back to the public ...
    AMA can make Archi's proud of themselves as professionals !

      migimack Yes I am aware of Epidemic Sound but I don’t like their licensing structure where you are only allowed to use their stuff during the time of the subscription. I use Artlist and the license for the music is perpetual. Still, it’s about finding the right music for the footage and setting the right vibe which I find difficult.
