The Award-Winning Home of an Architect That Unites Architecture, Art, Design and Craft (House Tour)

- Located near central Melbourne with a view towards the Yarra River, Kew Residence is home of an architect that unites architecture, art, design and craft. Designed by and for John Wardle of John Wardle Architects, the architecture and interior design is intricately detailed, with emphasis placed on materiality and bespoke elements. The house is positioned to appear as part of the natural landscape of elm trees on the site, in a way that reflects the respect for nature inherent in Japanese design.
The architect’s love of the Japanese artefact is depicted in the forms and specifications within the interior design and architecture. Throughout the house, custom Japanese tiles are used as a measure, with spaces designed in response to the size, shape and aesthetic of the tiling. The kitchen walls feature a scalloped tile from the Tajimi Valley in Japan. A downstairs space known as the Bamboo Forest Room features tiles produced in a singular kiln in the Tajimi Valley. Each piece is slightly different, creating a varied and beautiful result that reflects the uniqueness and simplicity of Japanese artefacts. The master bathroom contains a mix of Agape products and INAX ceramic tiles, with a Nivis basin and Cristalplant bathtub completing its luxurious, organic materiality.
As the home of an architect, sculptural features are given equal weight to functional elements. The house displays John Wardle’s love of narrative, with personal stories contained in the customised interior design, an example being a table that tells the tale of a tea tray the architect purchased as a student.
As is often seen with the home of an architect, every detail of this house has been carefully considered with bespoke elements, play of light and aesthetic effects taking precedence.

This amazing home of architect John Wardle features on the cover of our latest print edition, Issue No. 5 - thelocalproject.com.au/publication/issue-05/
Would love to find out the name of the brilliant ceramicist who constructed the bamboo-inspired tiles?
The amount of personality in this home is such a nice switch from the basic modern interior
I didn't like the wood,
It was overwhelming, but we all have different tastes...🤷♂️
@@sm3675 its too vivid for me also that makes me underwhelm
Ah yes, personality is owning loads of random shit.
@@madaxe i suppose a empty room is enough for you. Minimalist
@@xxDxxism No, a tastefully designed one. Not the garbage you bought when you were 5
this house is amazing but can we take a minute to appreciate the way this video was shot & edited?
Yes! So professional, it was a beautiful looking video
Absolutely!
Keeping me on my toes
th-cam.com/video/3FvKzSBSQcc/w-d-xo.html ❤
Yes!
I wish every construction project would take consideration of trees and try to build around them. They have magical energy.
I totally agree!!
Same
Bio-Architecture
They do have a magical energy. That's why forms of trees show up in religious architecture throughout the ages. Columns were inspired by trees.
@@philanthropicnightmare1206 it's not magical or mythology... it's evolution.
The video editor deserves an Oscar!
AGREED!
100%! that was amazing to watch!
no doubt for that
smashed it
which camera they use ?? plzzzzzzzz tell me
As an aspiring architect-to-be, this might just be the single most motivating and inspiring thing I've ever come across. Because it truly feels like a home, and at the same time I could walk around in there for weeks and not have enough time to take it all in. Jaw-dropping.
Not only the attention to detail, but the eye- and the vision for every little detail cannot be put into words. I'm blown away, I really am.
To me from the outside it looks like a box with glass around it. Inside looks over furnished, dark and claustrophobic. The windows give some good views but that’s about it.
I wonder if postmodern architecture can produce anything beautiful. Everything looks like dull boxes.
When nature blends creamily with modern thinking.
CREAMILY
@@charlessokolowski3353 ceramily means smoothly ( Indian style)
Hands down one of the best home tours I've ever seen. Very different directing and such a play on themes and materials. Beautiful home. Beautiful production.
modern mid century meets traditional japanese design.... love it
What I love about homes like this is the fact that it will never age. It’s unique design is timeless and will always be beautiful.
Highly impressive amount of character that this house owns.
That's the most beautiful house I've seen in years. Every element is poetic and sensual. Simple and extravagant at the same time. Those floating plates of glass on the exterior and linear siding. It's all just stunning work. A fine piece of modern art perfectly in sync with our time in history.
The camera work is exceptional
You guys really might just be the most attention to detail production on TH-cam for architecture and design
As someone who’s already a home-body type person.. if I lived in that house, I think I would truly never want to leave home. Every room is beautiful.
The editing, the design itself, the narrating, it is so calm, and good. As an architect I just can say respect for this masterpiece.
An absolute credit to architect and owner…….such an individual, respectful and stunning home……one of the best I’ve seen.
I admire his aesthetic sense - the art in the home is fantastic, and the variety in textures, especially the tiles, is fabulous.
I love the combination of textures from tile and wood, how light plays in the rooms and how he has combined modern with charming. There is such peace coming from everything that can be seen from the house, it’s totally integrated.
I admire amazing creativity of the architects featured on this channel as well as the videographers who produce these breathtaking videos! As a mom of 2 toddlers I rarely get a break, but as soon as I get an alert for your new video I get my coffee, grab my headphones and “travel” to the most amazing houses of Australia.
This is like a healing home for me. Sorrounded by nature, modern with a touch of wood accent but not overdone. Stress free environment , this house chef kiss
The house is more artwork than actual house. If I were to live here, I'd probably be more preoccupied keeping things tidy and nice than relaxing and decompressing.
A celebration of nature as much as a celebration of design. Absolutely love it.
This might be the best video youtube ever recommended to me
😇
The trees bring this home the most zen, magical balance. I will never understand those people who dislike trees. Trees are life, trees are beauty, trees are relaxation, trees are art. Amazing home.
"Absolutely stunning design! The blend of modern architecture with natural elements is breathtaking. Every angle of this building is a work of art."
Couldn't agree more!
Now this is how you do a product placement within a home tour- I love the bamboo loo room!
I started watching your videos whenever im stressed with school, its so calming and I love the houses! its pure art
A Museum indeed. Beautiful things and limitless ideas. A bit cold despite the nice choice of materials.
This is definitely the most well made video from this channel. Love the vibe, not too melancholic, not too exciting, just perfect.
What architect should always be. This is art
"I am fascinated with Japanese artifact..."
Can't argue with that.
Indeed!
From the moment I saw the video on my feed to the end of that I was amazed by the project itself and the materials were chosen for the interior design. Beautiful house with a big personality. Great job.
The house is stunningly beautiful, maybe it should be called the tiles house because that's the focal point. The tiles used are beautiful.
Dudes just found superhighend Japan materials and someone made a perfect installation - you're a winners :))
the house is all over the place but the way that the video was made.... no comment
Fantastic house with truly beautiful tiles like fine jewels
What a beautiful creation. The design details are perfect. It looks very posh BUT very cozy..which is usually not achieved with most over designed homes. The editing on this one is next level, you are definitely the BEST REAL ESTATE video creators in TH-cam!👏
정말 멋져요. 저도 이런 집을 갖고싶습니다. 내 평생의 소원이에요. 이렇게 멋진 영상을 볼 수 있게 해줘서 Local Project에게 감사합니다.
It looks old but looks modern and futuristic HOW LIKE HOW ITS SO SEXY
Не перестаю удивляться,деталям и фактурам отделки,просматривая периодически этот шэдэвр.
Soooo love houses with lots of wall art and sculptures. Add books, lots of timber and greens and I couldn't ask for anything more. Love it.
That bamboo forest room is just amazing! I just want one in my home. But so is the rest of the house, unique stylish, and the cinematography is just stunning too.
This is not my style at all, but i'm obsessed.
This home is absolutely extraordinary. I love the materials used in the home, the idiosyncratic design of the build, and the beautiful objects in the space. I’m loving the sensibilities. Great photography, too!
I am impressed that these 3 elms have survived the ravages of the elm beetle that decimated many of the elms in the area around Kew it is even more impressive that the trees have been so cherished by the designers of the renovation.
The musicality of the cinematography is so so amazing! 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
loved it love how every room and item had personality yet they all played beautifully together.
The video looked like shot in heaven on my ipad pro screen
Incredible the relationship between minimalism, complexity and trees
I love architects that reconfigure a floor plan/home based on the existing landscape/nature/trees. 🏡 🌳 🌲
Yes
Same
It should always be like that
Just adorable as a whole. Textured tiles, bathroom 6:13, lines. The filming as well.
Best production on this channel so far..
the cinematography and editing of this video - wow - just phenomenal. i love that you guys have given a structure a whole story. absolutely riveting.
riveting? r u mad? curb your enthusiasm... smh
Such a great video, love how the light falls into the housee and you are essentially a part of the nature around you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like it when they give credits to the sources of materials, artisanal items, and people who contributed to the crafting of this home. It was a collaborative craft.
What a GORGEOUS house, it's everything I want in my own home too someday. So much personality and artistry!!
the best home design I want to build, thanks for the inspiration
The windows. The views. Well done all 🤯🤯🤯🙌🙌🙌
The house is great but I'd love to see some wide hero shots of each room to really see what it looks like
Wow! The rich colors, textures and lightings.
Appreciate your recognition for Japanese art.
the whole house is like art , displayed for personal use, such great innovation in interior is rare to see
The way the video was edited, it's like I'm watching an Art Film. so wonderful.
O wish I could see a walkthrough the house. From the front door to the backyard. It’d feel like I’m walking inside. This way of editing make me a little confuse because in one shot I see the kitchen and suddenly I’m elsewhere and I do not know how I got there. But beautiful cinematic videos of course. And amaaaazing house. Wish I could see a bit more.
I agree. I love what I can see but you don't get a good sense how everything is connected
This video is more of a architectural showpiece rather than a tour of the house. I prefer this style as it makes you feel more connected to the house. I am pretty sure if you were pushing a sale of this house, you would want to have a walkthrough instead.
Agree!!!
I really like the leaf silhouettes and sunlight coming from the house surrounding.
i love the off-centered stretcher bond look with tiles/pavers! makes spaces look so much nicer
those "bamboo" tiles are incredible!
I love the personality and minucious thought out quality of this home!
When he says that all tiles fits on their own sizes to the space that is perfection....
I love the snow textured sink
*THIS* is kind of “modern architecture” we need more of.
What a gorgeous house
Fallen Snow basins!!! That is the best thing I have ever seen. How elegant
It is amazing piece of architecture
Stunning. The architecture. The thought behind everything. The GARDEN! (Also I kind of got Inception vibes due to the spinning top right in the beginning)
04:05 - Is that the people he taught before, because that's so sweet 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
Every thing in this video is truly inspiring for every one. Perfektion at it’s peak ;)
the best architecture videos on youtube hands down
The voice of John Wardle is so calm and satisfying, it reminds me so much of the magical Jony Ive
voice.
that upstairs bathroom literally gave me chills
One of the most interesting homes I’ve ever seen.
This channel is very underated 🗿
I like everything about it - except I cant stop thinking about how hard it would be to clean those "bamboo" style tiles in the bathrooms. The small crevasses would fill with dirt, mold, and seems like it would be a lot of work to clean opposed to a flat surface.
What about tiles made of stone? Those are more preferred since they are easier to clean.
I may be wrong, and this is just a wild guess, but they might actually have some natural cleaning properties due to their natural clay - the pores in it will catch and hold bacteria, dirt, etc, but not in a dangerous way - it traps them away
@@arthurb8436 Yea nope. You can have all the self cleaning properties you want, but moisture+dust will form a little layer of dirt. This might not be a problem though: if you need to brush them vigorously once a month it's not a big deal. And you possibly have a housemaid for that anyway.
Yeah I like the look of it but I also thought about the cleaning headache LOL. They probably take good care of it/hire cleaners/etc.
@@PierSilver ur right, someone with the money to get those materials can definately afford a maid
One of the most beautiful houses I have ever seen.
Shoutout to whoever edited this video. The flights flashing in sync with the music is chill
Truly stunning. I had chills watching. If someone asked me the question "what is your ultimate dream house?" - this would be it.
This reminds me of a modern zen home with a pinch of bright colors
The snow basins were breathtaking.
Thanks so so much.👍🥰
Stunning, I love the sensitivity to organic and hand crafted materials.
This is hard.
Very hard.
As a newly-licensed architect, I know enough to know I have a long LONG way to go to design something like this.
The tilework. Damn. No unnecessary cuts. The space dimensions are perfect.
Finishes should have been predetermined beforehand to ensure they all line up.
Even then, it's not guaranteed.
The custom furniture and millwork.
And the fixtures.
This is high-level technical skill.
Jesus Christ.
This is such a gorgeous home, I wish to someday get to the point where I can also create something as stunning as this
I love tile details with green cyan shaded which is most impressive, and the outdoor view is stunning 😍 surrounded with 🌳 🌲 i love this architecture
I click on these videos cause I know there's a surprise waiting for me on the other side, seriously the production team is soo creative... Every element of these videos is reflecting how awesome their work is... I want a behind the scene documentary. And just out of curiosity, do you record your own original music for these videos or use royalty free music from some website?
The detailing of the timber jewellery box is very elegant 👌

I'm pausing every shot to fully take it in
Une œuvre d’art! À voir en à revoir. La céramique est en effet spéciale et magnifique. Judicieux la position des fenêtres pour y voir et apprécier la nature. Époustouflant.
the camera work of these videos really put you into the house,
I love cinematic you guys do, great material and space representation. Plenty of references to use in architectural visualization
I am simply extremely in love with this house! Congratulations to everyone involved in this wonderful project, and a special thanks to the editing and filming team, they managed to make us here on the other side of the screen impressed.
