An Architect’s Own Home Designed as an Experiential Tree House by the Ocean (House Tour)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ธ.ค. 2020
- Tree House by Madeleine Blanchfield Architects is a light-filled family home near Bronte Beach in Sydney. As the architect’s own home, the project exemplifies the studio’s experiential design approach, which sees light, form and materiality coalesce to create an experience of place. The architecture and interiors evoke mood and respond to the changes in light over the course of the day, while the elevated position within the treetops that gives Tree House its name creates a calming atmosphere.
With the living space located at the top floor of the architect’s own home, a journey is created through the architecture via a sculptural staircase. The sculptural forms created by the spiral staircase are balanced by the more pared back interiors, which take their cues from the natural setting. Pale timber, concrete and terracotta tiles, along with the careful approach to both natural and artificial light, reflect the design’s connection to the garden that surrounds it and the nearby beach.
This use of few materials detailed to create a highly refined architectural response is characteristic of an architect’s own home. It highlights how Madeleine Blanchfield Architects has created an experiential home in which simple elements such as materials, details, and changes in light can enhance the mood of a space, resulting in a family home whose architecture, interiors and garden work together to create a sense of lightness and calm.

Beautiful! Now this is how you do concrete inside right. Feels warm and welcoming and not cold and industrial. ❤️
We agree!
cold and industrial is a valid aesthetic choice for those who prefer it. it seems a bit backhanded to compliment one aesthetic at the expense of the other.
@@TheLocalProject how can I get in touch with you? I just bought a land back home and Would like to start a project hopefully March of 2021
@@sigissigis3174 It's preference. You don't have to like everything, and it's fine to express that. Eyes of the beholder and all.
Late reply, but I’ll just answer your question. It is probably the warm lighting and what surrounds it, light always bounce on a surface or can be absorbed; in this case the warm tone of the wood and a white paint with warm tint, it really reflects the light and bounce around the room and that’s why it feels warm (or maybe it could be just the video filter 😂)
this woman's aesthetic is on POINT. she knows what she's doing
Ooooh the lighting in that home both natural and artificial have been well thought out
The house is simply stunning but the “cinematic” editing of this video with the background music makes it a whole experience.
Stunning
on point!
And her voice.
I was totally mesmerized by it
I absolutely agree
The calmness she exudes is also visible in her house and it's so relaxing to listen to her soft voice as the video shifts into the house's every nook.
Yes it all blend perfectly together, big shout out to those who filmed and edited this video.
When you’ve long stopped fretting over cash flow, you’ll exude calm, too.
@@1lllllllll1 very true 😊
@@1lllllllll1 I know, right! My recent $2,700 bill for replacing sewer pipes in the basement left me with my calm stretched a bit thin ;o)
this changed my life. this sparked something inside me. i view homes in a different way now.
beautiful.
I was just about to write that. It's like I never understood the beauty of design and this video wrote out the equation for me. Something strangely objective and truthful about it all.
Thats architecture for you ;)
elliot lmao unexpected
I feel the same way too. The way how I look at houses are different now.
Elliot :D
This hit me right in my poverty
ah, the comment that captures this inexpressible emotion
I know that feeling T.T
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 well said. 🤣
Especially hard because I thought it was a tiny house.
😂
I am speechless. Such a beautiful home and the way they played with the light and the water reflections is so amazing. How beautifull all the materials are integrated. And the view into the garden is simply breathtaking. A true masterpiece
Glad you enjoyed it Nina!
Somehow I got emotional after watching this video. Architecture really has the power to express our souls. What a transcendent house!
Couldn't agree more!
Beauty has brought me to tears on more than one occasion. When I watch videos about tiny houses, I often cry. Not so much from the beauty of the house, but because the owners have taken total control of their lives, pared down, and are happier than they've ever been. I'm saddled with 4,000 square feet of Queen Anne, and a yard that needs daily attention, and would love to sell it all and start again somewhere... A friend just up and moved out to the Northwest. Hoping that she'll be my inspiration.
this felt like a meditation video
The house has that effect too!
most beautifully decorated interior i've ever seen. as for the video, architectural digest could learn a lot from this...
Wow, thank you Dev - much appreciated!
Agreed, this is my new favorite channel!!
yes AD please👏🏼learn👏🏼
Why didn't I discover this channel before , i was wasting my time on AD, not now .:D
I think they offer different things. This channel shows great homes with amazing cinematic shots, and nice interviews with the designers, but it isn’t really comprehensive when it comes to showing the full home. But I do like their style and am still a huge fan of the channel, though.
If she wasn’t an interior designer I would have thought she was a psychologist or smth. Her voice is so soothing and soft.
She is am architect
She is so calm the way the house fits her
She spoke so beautifully about this house - that staircase was a masterpiece

This house is-- DIVINE! Spare without feeling sterile. The lighting is perfectly thought out. It must be a total experience to be there at night. Too bad it's only 3 feet from the neighbors, tho, and that the neighbors up the hill can watch you in your backyard. City living I guess. I have a quote that echos her remark-- "In the most successful spaces, you don't see everything at once." ~ Vincent Wolf
Well said David & such a brilliant quote too.
As an architecture student, this has been an inspiration really. I would want to design my own home in the future with this kind of simple yet elegantly impactful design. Thank you for sharing this
A pleasure Paul!
The connection to nature is wild.
It really is - such a beautiful and calm feeling when you're on the top level and in the tree tops.
as i was listening and watching this, i find myself going into a place of peace. very wholesome.
Your home is the most beautiful I’ve seen. Simple yet sophisticated.
Her voice Is super relaxing :0
Anyways, the house Is so pretty almost magical
Dream Voice 😄
I should thank for the cameraman too for took beautiful angle in this house. Well done 👍🏼
She absolutely crushed it with this design. Honestly it hits all the bullet points I love in a home. Fantastic job!
th-cam.com/video/-SDbAMyfGyQ/w-d-xo.html
What a lovely lady and her home is spectacular. Cheers...
We agree!
The courtyard, the pond and the accent lights, these details are amazing.
th-cam.com/video/-SDbAMyfGyQ/w-d-xo.html
Honestly I've seen so many home tour videos and this is by far the most memorable and beautiful home I've seen. It's modern, yet warm. It's not a giant house that consumes you, but a tastefully thought-out space that you would feel happy living in.
Australian interior designers always know how to make a space absolutely beautiful
Yes they certainly do!
The way the mood and atmosphere of the house completely changed at night. WOW. each space in the house feels so therapeutic. This a home that feels like it would be good for your soul. This video was beautiful. Manifesting this for me one day ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Madeleine is a super-modest design genius. that home is amazing, night and day: elegant, modest, thoughtful, sensitive, functional, soothing, interesting, warm, inviting, comfortable....
What a brilliant and articulate architect. She is able to express her extraordinary vision in so many ways.
Couldn't agree more!
I clicked for the home and stayed for her ASMR voice.
i feel like this house could probably healing my soul lol
Haha - we agree!
Exactly
Lovely, the house exudes a Zen feeling, without being too miimalist. The use of light is seen through the eyes of an artist, wonderful. I love the time-lapse that showed the multiple shadow patterns that creep over the floor and walls. Gorgeous.
i watched this and thought to myself "a love affair with materials"
love the attention to detail and how everything feels like one unit
Well said Sachi!
My introverted self, NEEDS this house! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is the most beautiful house I have ever seen.
It's certainly one of ours too!
the lightening of this house is the best i have seen because it resonates with me. Soft lights at the right places makes this a perfect living space.
_This_ is what I've been looking for over at Architectural Digest. Thankfully, the almighty TH-cam Algorithm showed great mercy, and led me home to The Local Project!
Very glad to have you on board Hermes - we hope you enjoy!
Exactly!
i love the way the terra cotta floors blend with the wood in the adjacent room, and how she describes it as walking on sand. she speaks like a true architect! the way she describes the way light changes throughout the day is something i also appreciate in a home. while the home appears simple, its apparent so much thought and meaning went into it. very interesting!
I could feel the calm and peaceful vibe just by watching this.
I love how much care and attention she paid to light. That’s the number one thing I look for in a space.
This is the first house shown on this channel that resonates with me the most. They maximize the space of the house, there's a library, a lawn, a balcony, simple and not too much of a too much material and good plays of all the material. Things that are commonly used to build a house is found in the major view of the house like wood and things that are not common like you don't see grey concrete on the wall everywhere on the house like in some houses. This house has a bit of everything in the best way possible.
Love this cozy not too large homes. The idea for the living space to look like a treetop view is genius. Even the drone shot of the family on the countertop looks so inviting.
Every time I think you won't be able to top your previous video, you guys do just that. Please keep proving me wrong, The Local Project..
🤯❤️
Thank you Farhan - we have some very special features coming up that I think you will love just as much as this one!
That spiral staircase is the star of the show😍
Literally my dream home. So modern, contemporary but also resort style. It feels so relaxing & airy. Also love the dining chair, low & didnt cutting the view
The sunlight that reflected from the little pond was soothing to watch.
these videos give me a serene vibe and the cinematography is just mind blowing really gives me peace watching these videos
Her voice is so calming and soothing and fits right in with the video editing.
I’m in awe... so thoughtful and so successful!! Would die to live here
the lighting in this house is crazy, almost no lights is turned on during the day yet there's no feeling of darkness on each corners of the house
The Local Project channel is SO IT!!
The house is beautiful. I love the way Madeleine talks us through it, giving insight into how and why she's designed parts in the way she has, and giving it more meaning. Beautifully filmed too.
I loved how the architect actually talked and get to know the children so she could make the room perfect for them. I'll integrate that into my way of work. Thank you.
Considering they’re her own children maybe not so much of a stretch
The house is as calming as her voice. Love everything about the house.
Watched it 3x. Different experience each time. Wide screen the third time. Captivating. Thank you very much for opening you home ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is the most intelligent and sophisticated yet not very expensive looking because of the blend of simplicity, aesthetics and naturistic design I've ever seen. And her voice is very soothing in the ears, feels like she's story telling in a love story movie. Excellent work!!!
Tama. Ang ganda neutral Lang Ang interior which I loved. Tapos Ang buong bahay may natural light talaga...
This home is stunning! It’s a work of art. I loved everything about it.
I understand her summing this home up. It's so true! It just gets better and better. It pulls you in. Wonderful home, lovely shapes and details!
This house is such a considered space. I like the way the house keeps revealing itself to the owners. A job well done!
So many commissions focus on making a statement about the owner or his/her tastes. But, people change--and, what was once a certainty becomes stale and confining. Ms. Blanchfield helps me realize here that design's higher calling may be to help the owner humanely reconnect with what's timeless, and help de-emphasize ego without becoming completely anonymous or sterile.
Her voice + the editing + the colors + the home design + the music make this the most satisfying video I've ever seen. First time in my life a home video made me emotional. wow.
this made me smile. the lighting, both natural and artificial, was used in an amazing, awe-inspiring manner.
Love how the light and the materials and texture are dancing together throughout the day (on wood, reflections of the water, on concrete...). A different story everyday. Very poetic.
This is extraordinary! Madeleine's intentions feels palpable. Beautiful!
This is easily one of the best home viewings and easily one of the best channels out there
I like the concept behind the kids' room. What a mindful choice to incorporate those elements to fit their personalities and not just design the room with their favorite color in mind. A thoughtful and insightful design
Her comments about each of her children's rooms & how each kid engages with their respective outdoor spaces were so well said.
This has to be one of my favorite homes showcased on this channel. It just seems so perfect and warm .
Calming house and beautiful serenity and peace in her voice!
This has much became a therapy video for me more than it being a perfect combination of thoughtful production and experiential house tour. Inspiring!
Wow. Beautiful home and beautiful people
They are!
This channel is precious. It show in architects perspect and much better than those millions enormous villa in other channels
what a gorgeous house. she speaks of it like a beautiful poem.
I love how the house seems to switch itself between its day and it's night vibe, it is so lively and energetic as its ready to start the day in the morning, and at the evening the house changed into 'pajama time' to end the day and chill with the family. Simply put, beautiful.
❤❤
Very refined taste. From the detail, passing through the project and house, to the film production. A must.
Much appreciated Cesar!
This home is designed and decorated perfectly!!!! One of the best
I teared up watching this, simply beautiful. Architecture in its glory !
This video was a delight! The house is exceptional in every way and Madeleine's calming presence resonated throughout the video. Someone should convince her to read audiobooks haha.
Shoutout to the person that choosed the bgm for this video. i felt at peace watching it.
Perfectly described...the house is indeed EXPERIENTIAL.
Spectacular design! I dream of living in a house this beautiful.
This is by far the most livable and absolutely beautiful home I've seen. I dare call my dream house.
It really is a dream house..! ☺️
You have a peaceful, Serene and tranquil voice. I love it. Thank you.
So clean and gorgeous houses. Very thought Full! Inspired!
This. Is. Stunningly. Beautiful.
Thank you for sharing this!
This has to be in my top 3 on here. The little details are INSANE. God
One of the most amazingly detailed houses I've ever seen! WOW‼️ It's a masterpiece‼️ Sculpturally miraculous and exquisitely executed everywhere the camera took us on the tour. I can see why Madeleine Blanchfield says you can see something different every time you walk in, so many gorgeous layers. I think this house design and it's decoration are up there with all the famous masterpieces in the art world. I would hire Madeline to design me a house too, if I had all the money in the world....Thank you for such a delicious, visual feast for the senses....
The way of Lights is just incredible...love it.
This is absolutely stunning! The most beautiful and masterfully designed house i have seen... What an incredible skill in harnessing light to make this place so dynamic, truly light, both natural and artificial, is used here as architect's tool in elevating the building. I'd love to live in such a beautiful place. Hope my skills will reach that level one day. Beautiful ❤
Love this house, i'm a designer too and this lady explained exactly how good design works from start to finish, she ticked all the boxes, you can tell she designs with passion.
As an interior designer I must say... I would click on that like button for any seconds of this great work, if it just gives more likes.
Thanks Ferhat!
@@TheLocalProject in this case.. I thank you
This house is so well balanced....very beautiful !!!!
The most beautiful house I've ever seen. The design has been thought out to the very last detail. So captivating, you just cannot look away.
❤❤
Madeleine's house is absolutely stunning. Brilliant videography. I love how the bird played in the pond. I'm in Melbourne, it's gloomy and we are in lockdown. This video lifted me and I lost myself in observing such architectural beauty.
i love this place so bad. its whole aesthetic is so well-organised that u cannot but just dream about it. Great inspiration, massively talented artist
Absolutely Beautiful! I might just cry right here
So elegant!!! Love the layered lighting at nighttime, looks so inviting and cosy!!! 👏😍
This is one of the best and beautiful houses with light, simplicity and calmness ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍loved it.
We agree!
im in love with their house, esp. the ceiling where the sunlight and the blue sky is showcased through those wooden layers and the windows as well!
She is greatest designer in world . I hope I can meet her . I wondered how did she do that beautiful house
She’s so lovely!!!
Love her style
