Inside a Unique and Sustainable Modern House with a Japanese Inspired Courtyard (House Tour)

- A modern house, Fitzroy Bridge House is a work of collaboration led by Matt Gibson Architecture + Design. Featuring a glass bridge - from which the project receives its name - the home emerges as a considered and personal dwelling that celebrates its older architectural elements.
Located in the southern Fitzroy heritage precinct, Fitzroy Bridge House sits an enviable two kilometres from the Melbourne CBD. The residence occupies a long, thin site and is comprised of distinct pavilions, encapsulating both the pre-existing architecture and the work of the modern house.
As Fitzroy Bridge House is situated in a heritage overlay, the exterior of the home could not be altered in relation to the front two rooms. Entering the home, residents move through the Victorian-style environments before reaching the rear architecture of the modern house that features a refined internal courtyard settled into the dining room interior design.
Connecting two pavilions, the glass bridge forms the focal point of the modern house. The bold feature provides a view down to the manicured garden in the Japanese-inspired courtyard - a fine work of landscape architecture requested by the client and executed by Robyn Barlow.
A product of collaboration, Fitzroy Bridge House is closely connected to the client. Warm, inviting and personal, the modern house expresses its own built narrative, enabling the client to retell the story of its creation for years to come.

The houses on this channel are so much more beautiful than those $50 million mansion is on Beverly Hills
But how much cost the houses of this channel ?
@Furorento Nori still not cheap around 3M - 10M, this particular one is probably 5,6M
@@ayudan24688 5M isn’t bad for this building at all
100%
I don’t even begin to understand how there are so many spectacular homes in Australia. I’m always surprised and delighted when you find and magically capture a new one. Well done! Incredible renovation!
I thought about that too… And since Australia is a very small country they’re about I don’t know 25 million people and there’s plenty of space I presume people really cherish their homes and they hire architects more readily than the mass produced home it’s in the United States many people called “architecture” which is far from the truth
So, I'm not the only one trying to figure this out! LOL. I want to travel to Australia just to see these home forget anything else! LOL
Hey guys, Aussie here who lives in Melbourne. We have so many beautiful homes. We also have mass produced homes in housing estates. There's also terribly rundown homes and poorer areas.
We have it all here. But yes, we do have a LOT of beautiful homes and great design.
I live in the south east suburbs of Melbourne and I'm equally stunned. These masterpieces are hidden in plain sight. You'd never even know this was here if you walked past it.
@@Lukavichiano mate compared to what place like America has… even our poorer areas are heavenly in comparison
This might be my very favorite house of those I've seen in this series. Besides the wonderful garden court, what I like is that its minimalism isn't cold, but tranquil and inviting. The wine cellar and bar is a luxe element I could do without, but it's beautifully designed.
I agree. This is one of my favourites. Absolutely fantastically chic!!
Agreed. It’s my favourite!
Minimalism isn't cold, but more so...cool.
I absolutely agree. A lot of the other homes rely on concrete for minimalism, while claiming "sustainability" and connectivity to nature (laughable). This, however, is truly great and lives up to its claims.
Omg. This could honestly be the best one yet.
I absolutely love that lionfish design wall sculpture
One of the best and most inspired homes I've seen on this channel. Bravo! 👏
Wow, thank you!
More sustainable houses please, the idea of their design is beautiful.
This is by far one of my favorite house video from you guys
There are so many unique and creative aspects of this home. With its curves and textures, it depicts beauty and grace. The courtyard was an added bonus. It created peace and tranquility. I can only imagine the amount of gratitude that the homeowner must feel on a day to day basis. It's certainly a job well done!
That cellar is so amazing! Completely caught me by surprise
Hands down one of the most beautiful homes I've seen here. Always been a fan of simplicity. Way better than the other mega houses. 😍
Wow. Every space is it's own seperate experience.
Truly warm, textural and inviting. I loved everything about this house - the glass bridge, the skylights, the courtyards, the retreat, …. the list goes on and on.
Whether you go in or out, this home boasts numerous distinctive features, making it exceptionally valuable. 💖💖
i love the surprise and humour that are in this house. quite refreshing.
I love when rich clients and skilled architects come together to create something like this beautiful home!
Beautiful combination of traditional and a little bit of futuristic elements
Controlled quirkiness. Beautiful and non predictable design. Really refreshing to watch.
Stunning top to bottom, inside and out. Truly a visual gift.
They have REALLY good taste. That bathroom was so tasteful, love it.
Ohhhhhhn! I love this channel so damn much. Words don’t even begin to do it justice 🙏
🥰
I immediately noticed the way they deter predators from the goldfish pond was an underwater grate that the fish can swim through… That’s brilliant!
This architectural home is next level! What stands out for this home is the high level glass aisle.
Really love the combination of the old & new designs. Thsnks Local Project
Absolutely stunning. I could live here in a heartbeat.
All I can say is just "WOW". I love those courtyards, a tranquil space for yourself in the middle of a city. This is a very beautiful project! Soft touches, nothing screams at you, truly a place to unwind and relax.
A very fresh and juxtaposed design. Well done.
Spending my twenties crashing with friends renting dark & dingy terrace houses ... how inspiring to see them being re-imagined so elegantly yet also warm and homey.
Refreshing to see money and style co-existing; finally!
Wow, just wow, amazing job 👏🏻 🙌 👌🏻 😍
Isamu Naguchi woulld be proud.
Masterpiece.
Thank you Mr. Gibson...
Talent? You bet.
Cheers.
Being interviewed (in my imagination):
- Who's your favourite Architect?
- The Australian ones, all those featured in The Local Project, specifically this one.
Good God, you guys, your skills and creativity are so soo sooo up there 🤩👌🏽✨
Wow! This home is awesome! The contrast between old and new, the glass bridge, the central court yard, the layout and integration of outdoor/indoor experience... the build materials. It is just amazing. And I guess, not cheap! Lovely spot and it inspires me to expand my thinking about the spot where I live.. 🙂
This might be the only architect's video I've ever seen where they did not use the word "space". Maybe not even once? I hear it so often that it's kind of grating and feels impotent in describing anything accurately, but architects in other videos use it every few moments. Play any video and give it a try. It was refreshing to listen to someone not use it for once, and they created an absolutely gorgeous home.
Everytime I watch a video on this channel I say it’s my favorite project but this also definitely one if my favorites 😅
Seen this home featured on TH-cam some time ago, that being said with your cinematography and editing this house looks totally different (in a good way). You can feel the moodiness and calmness this house provides. Again thanks for the video.
Number one channel. Best content. It would be great if you can provide plan of the house with each video.
every detail screams elegance! beautiful house indeed.
This is my dream home, I mean literally, It feels like I manifested the house in this video, its what I've always dreamed of building for my family. insane.
A delight to watch; must be amazing to live in this property and enjoy its architecture.
It's the real true beauty of nature about person's to make beautiful, to make comfortable and or to make helpful.↗👌
It is surprisingly good in every aspect of the house. Makes me want to take a cup of tea. so relaxing!
So tasteful and sophisticated and yet cozy. This one is the pinnacle of this channel’s quality
Der Weinkeller ist der Knaller
WOW Breathtaking design ♥️
This channel has had some spectacular spaces, but this one is my favorite! The indoor/outdoor approach, the inner courtyard/pond, the clean lines, and the design features--just absolutely stunning.
this is possibly the nicest home i've seen....really inspiring!
The inner courtyard oasis is remarkable as are the many transitional elements.
It's a beautiful fusion of the traditional home with the renovated addition. The inner courtyard is beautiful and brings light to the central portion of the home as does the elevated walkway. The home seems quite serene. It's really beautiful. I love the continued use of Arches in the addition. The arched hallway in the traditional home is such as striking feature the use of arched windows and doorways in the renovated addition is beautiful. Beautiful home.
Wow! Sublime. How much time, thought, effort and of course money would have been invested into a project like this I wonder... the detail and design is pure art. A joy to watch!
What an incredible home design. Love the fact that it's a heritage house and able to transform into such an amazing work of design. Love the transition between styles...!!! ♥
So strange to hear him say maximizing the northern sun exposure… I am from the other side of the rock and and am so accustomed to people talking about southern sun exposure! :)
I love this channel! It is very inspiring and useful, even for a person like me who is not an architect and can't afford any of these homes, because the architects discuss, not only the space, but the philosophy behind each project, which is a great way to tackle any project, big or small. It helps to think outside of the box. Thanks!
so stunning and yet homely... I can see myself living in those space... Love it....
Brilliant use of space, I love the transition between inside and out, and the way the light plays with it all is beautiful
Glasses bridge is charming ideas ✨
Asian style inspired garden bamboo💚💧 golden fish…..give the peaceful Fengshui : )🌸
I LOVE this home. Really beautiful and thoughtful design. Materiality notices are spot on. I want it!
What a wonderful home. One of my favorites on TLP. I could just move right into that space. Great job Matt...and clients.
It’s just amazing
This is definitely my favourite home you've featured so far! Left a mark in my heart. This home is a masterpiece. Absolutely stunning.
What a gorgeous home! It appears that money was no object in the renovation of this home and the end result is amazing. I love the blend between indoors/outdoors. Well done!
Each video is meticulously well planned, narrated and videographed. It is always a pleasure to go through these houses which have a unique vision put into them. I have learnt a lot from you all.
Absolutely stunning design that is both inviting and artistic. I love seeing homes in this neighborhood that are forced to meld the older original street facing parts with modern design. It forces them to come up with such creative combinations of design language.
Truly an elegent and beautifuly executed design of spaces, Timeless!
that hidden cellar is really impressive.
This is magical! I go back to this house when I need to feel tranquil or be inspired. Thanks for sharing this!! Your channel deserves so much more. More power and please don’t regress when you do.
This was so so soooo beautiful and heartwarming to watch!!the inside-outside concept never gets old!
wow-absolutely magical. I only wish the video was longer...I didn't want it to end
WOW! STANDING OVATION!!!!!!!!!
So so beautiful.
What an absolutely stunning and serene home 🖤 a credit to everyone involved
My favorite house so far 😍
This one is so beautiful.
The design is spectacular!! Just love the garden so much!
This was stunning 😍.
Perfect perfect! Thanks for sharing
QUALITY house. very good. thanks
Glad you like it!
What a wonderful art for living, really appreciate for the great works❤️
Love this house, One of my favorites from this channel
Love this house, easily one of the best on the Local Project so far
Ooooooh, this is yummy! I love having one or two dark rooms to balance incredible modern but soft light rooms. And the feeling of being outside, yet protected. Checks all the boxes for me! ♥
shout out to the video editor for the transition at 2:00 - nice
Absolutely gorgeous.
love the brick work
Outrageously gorgeous.
This house is just amazingly designed and built to incorporate Fitzroy's unique characteristics and reflect Melbourne's modern feel. Which builder executed this artful project so well?
THANK YOU For a Inspiration 💓💞🥰🙏
Magnificent. Simply magnificent.
Love this
Stunning!! Well done team it is a beauty.
Absolutely loved the design !
just stunning.....wish that I could live there :)
I do not love dark living rooms, about the rest of the house, it's just mesmerizing, really cozy and familiar
Lovely house, beautifully designed.
With my height issues, the glass bridge and walls are beautiful, but freak me out :) The use of wood, and landscaping is spectacular. The automatic door to the cellar and the wood peg wine holders are very cool. Nice segue from the original Victorian to the modern extension. Another winner!
This house is exiting!!!
Excelente.. Gracias por compartir saludos desde México... I'm fan you TV show...
Well done everyone. This is Absolutly stunning 🔥🔥🔥
Speechless 😶 🥰😍
Beautiful 😍
wow, very unique yet beautiful design
It's spectacular! I wish we could get at least an approximate cost of building these homes.
Probably 2-5 million
