Architect Designs a Concrete Super House With a Modern Interior Design (House Tour)

- The exact sum of its parts, The Gallery House features spaces both grand and small, each expressing their own narrative. Crafted by Workroom, the super house stands as an exemplary piece of interior design and architecture.
Situated in the well-established suburb of Toorak, The Gallery House sits amongst other large family homes and gardens. Despite its spatial openness, the super house is designed in allusion to experiences yet to come, flowing towards other aspects of itself and its context.
A house tour of the property reveals the extent of its size. A true super house, the residence contains 4 bedrooms, 2 lounge rooms and vast, double-height voids. Workroom purposely conceals the size of the home from the street, creating anticipation and intrigue, using a curved concrete wall to the entry as a reveal of what is to come.
The modern materials of concrete, terrazzo, timber and stone feature consistently in the super house. Subverting expectations, Workroom uses the characteristically heavy concrete to craft an elegant staircase that appears effortlessly lightweight, whilst timber and green stone facilitate an open connection to the lush landscaping.
Embracing a raw materiality, Workroom creates a super house that will gracefully express the passage of time. With the capacity to visually evolve with age, The Gallery House is a successful interpretation of modern refinement.

Yes i will do. Please tell me the Name of the Soundtrack from the house entry (00:10). Thank you ❤️
One of the best narrations without trying too hard!
The Architecture, the interior, the landscape, the materials, the background music, the voice of the designer, AND the way the camera shoots those angles... ALL your videos are perfect in all of those.
There's no question, this is an exceptional home. Additionally, I love how private the dwelling is, yet once you enter the building it completely opens up and transforms into this beautiful, voluminous home.
1:58 boy really had to get down 3 stairs just to get up 3 stairs, all in 2 seconds
I caught that too. One of those form-over-function architectural moments I guess.
Clearly never been injured/needed crutches. Etc....legit safety hazard not to keep it at one level.
Apparently it is a layout design flaw. Simply by locating the stairs in the hallway negate the up and down as well as the pointy corner
You get the sense that in australia they really appreciate craftsmanship and Blue Collar labour, and that just leads to finishes which are almost impossible anywhere else, theres such a respect for the craft. There should be everywhere.
I live in Australia and I must say, for the vast majority, good craftsmanship is out of our budgets. Most go for mass builders that don't care too much about craftsmanship.
Yeah, nah. This is about respecting the money that goes into creating such spaces and finishes. This isn't Australia, this is a very, very narrow section of moneyed Australia.
Love the way this man talks about design. I agree so much with his perspective! Beautiful project. 🙌

I am continually amazed at the creativity and innovation shown in this home and all of the projects in The Local Project. Do you realize just how unique you are?
Thank you very much, we really appreciate it.
This is what is called Architectural design. Mind-boggling.
LOVE THIS!!! Cheers to everyone who's been a part of this and to the clients!
The level of workmanship that has gone into this house with regards to the concrete, terrazzo is astounding.
He was fantastic at narrating this video!
And he never said "materiality" once! :)
@@johnhislop2993 I really appreciated how he talked all about elements and principles of design.
Beautiful home . . .I appreciate and enjoy seeing the satisfaction of the architect because he has designed a home that his clients love with a very cool staircase. Yes, additional the idea that the garden will grow and become another element to the home is quite wonderful. The use of water pools or fountains in the yard creates a serene mood.
Wow yall. Wow Workroom. Wow Local Project. Wow wow wow.
I love the way that everything is the opposite to what at first seems the obvious, like the heavy concrete staircase that appears to float.
your channel is an absolute youtube gem
I love the surprise drinks cabinet marble finish!
Agree completely. At 2:20, that was the prize shot.
I love your channel. Everything is beautiful, architecture, music, the way of filming. Thanks to you, everyone can see the amazing architecture.
Very well executed home, love how John speaks about the consistency in his design.
Outstanding design! Such a flowing home! Inside and out!
i love the green stone table
Absolutely beautiful. I like the look of natural materials used throughout especially that concrete stairs. Very well done.
this is one of the most tasteful designs i have seen on this channel. just exquisite. thanks for sharing.
That floor is too perfect. 😌
This type of design what inspires me to have an appreciation of architectural designs and professionals behind it.
..and the outcome is like having a japanese artisanal craft vibe into it, its a work or art in every corner
Beautiful home and TLP has masterfully captured it essence.
Beautiful! Toorak has some amazing homes
Beautiful, beautiful!
Beautifully done💖
Beautiful home!The curved concrete stairs were very well done. The cantilever concrete steps on another level is spectacular. Takes a lot of work to achieve the look. Excellent work by all....
Wow - a stunning home. Bravo.
Absolutely beautiful!
A really good design, love it.
One of the best ones
The house is perfect 👌.
Love this house!
Beautiful.
Nice project
Outstanding!
Absolutely beautiful and great work .
Love the stairgasm at the end. What a fantastic place to live, and the tree line streets, ahhhh. Shame the UK planners have no vision with housing estates, soleless.
Splendid 🤩 from England 🏴
Out and inside have beautifull transition,stair concrete is timeless material,thanks love and subscribe

Amazing house and gorgeous arquitec 💋❤️ wow
That's a great idea
It's so pretty. :)
This is a great project!
It's an amazing building
This house.. in Toorak.. damn.. tell me you're in the 99.9th percentile without telling me 🤑
Encanta la sensación de atmósferas
Awesome
Pretty good stay indeed
Really good design, higher taste.
Amazing ❤❤.
Very nice. I'll bet the client had a generous budget!
It’s beautiful, and yet… I’ve never felt so alienated by a home in my life. Every surface has that public space “don’t linger here” vibe.
I think there are some pockets that feel warm and inviting, but on the whole, I agree: it's all so sophisticated and austere that it feels a bit intimidating to inhabit. We're probably just miles removed from the demographic that can afford it.
That would be the overuse of concrete and those huge ceilings. Rarely can one have double height ceilings and feel at home, its just too much.
@@alexbarcovsky4319 thats the beauty of architecture, I love double volume spaces (when done right)! There is nothing more luxurious and liberating than experiencing great spaces. Don't get me wrong, you want a mixture of cosy intimate spaces but contrasting that with a majestic rich double volume is spectacular. But, its not just about the double volume, as with any other space its about its proportion, materials, light, over-scaled windows and doors, textures and so on that makes it a great space or a depressing space.
It has brutalist-industrial type of design, yes very much alike with the public spaces. But for sure, it was an intended outcome. It showcases the bareness/rawness of the materials and rejected the well-polished, comforting texture treatments that make a space more "homey". It wants to be honest and exposed. The vegetation that envelopes the surroundings gives that much needed vibe and the rawness of the materials provide that seamless continuity that merges nature with the man-made structure. I would personally consider it a modern interpretation of a cave dwelling, not homey, but essentialist, and cave-like because of how it conceals itself from the facade and only reveals what more there is once you enter it, and also how nature seems to still take over and crawl towards it.
@@alexbarcovsky4319 I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion to be honest. We will never know how the owner feels unless we step into their lives. Design is just too subjective and personal, especially when it comes to homes built for a family.
I like this
Superb.
The concrete work is on another level. I'd be curious about it cracking over time, not from a structural integrity position, more ascetically.
🌳The sense of Timeless 🤍 .)
I lovet❤️😍
This ones special.. 🎼☕️
Xcilent ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
this channel always brings me polarizing emotions... i’m in awe of the human mind and all this beauty that was created. but it’s impossible to watch this without depressing thoughts of how f’d over the 99% of people in this world are and we will never experience this no matter how hard we work for it...
Why should “everyone” be able to own a house like this? There wouldn’t be enough concrete in the world…
@@xissburg i’m not implying that. but there’s no upward mobility and property prices are insane. this life is afforded almost exclusively to those with generational wealth.
also i believe housing should be beautiful and comfortable no matter the size or location of your home
@@lll000l00o yes and it’s only gonna get worse, with inflation and real estate speculation, rise of cost of living, etc. Though a lot of people are not even sophisticated enough to appreciate and care for a house of this level.
Simply buy bitcoin and wait a couple of years
@@Sleepy_Joe_ lol how’s the bored ape crash going
I♥️Support your work
Been watching for a year now
Thank you so much 😀
Damn son that staircase
Institutional, austere.
I like house
beautiful....only think I did not like is going down a few steps to go up many.... vs a shared landing.
the staircase is giving me brutalist vibes
Definitely a solid build. I could not live with concrete stairs indoors.
good thing you cannot afford too
@@lordnass381 weirdo reply
I would want a carpet runner to help soften the sound. They always play soft music when the reality is that with that many hard surfaces, it is not a quiet house.
😍
What a GEM! Inside & out...simply perfection! Marry me?!
For me the landscaping seems too excessive to the point it makes the outdoor spaces seem unusable for a family home. The workmanship however is incredible especially the finish on the concrete. Kudos to the tradies who built this house.
The holy spirit told me that was the right time to get new apartment and live completely new way of life
Hi, anybody knows the brand or name of the pendant lights in the kitchen, timestamp - 0:35 ? Thanks.
What is the first song used? Thank you 🙏🏻
" didn't give it away at once." :)
Which all builders in Melbourne construct with concrete?
🤞🏿
Is there a special architect store they all shop at? They seem to all dress the same.
😲✨✨✨
🇲🇨
The house looks like a picasso art gallery
Проекты домов разные кардиналтно
Beautiful home. Although I'm starting to notice on a lot of these videos that they often times now have concrete/terrazzo flooring. I'm not a fan of it. It makes it look too much liike an art gallery or a fancy hotel lobby rather than a home. Why have people gone away from beautiful, warm, inviting feeling you get from timber flooring?
I totally agree with you, but I can imagine that spaces like this where there is no boundaries between indoor and outdoor it would be hard to maintain wood flooring, so I guess it require something hard/robust
Ones definition of a home is going to differ from person to person. There's also a recent video of Anderson Road on this channel that covers those things you mentioned in regard to a warm house.
Nice overall, but the stairs are unwelcoming and too cold.
Other than the concrete and glass, there is not much I like about this home. The design, wood, stairs, furniture- everything is so choppy and in-coherent. As though they put together modular sections of various homes together.
Not a fan at all of terrazzo floors….going to look so dated, so soon. While I appreciate this house, it does not feel like a home to me. It feels like a mix between an office, a garage and a school. Would like to see it in a couple years when the garden matures.
They remind me too much of an office :/ Stunning house, though! X
Cold, brutalist building. That big dark box you see from outside. Overall it is suitable as commercial / business purposes, not as a home.
Pretty but very cold and sterile looking architecture.
that basement garage ramp ratio is uncomfortably steep.
Weird spaces, no views, looks kinda like a fancy prison.
Concrete bunker > Yuk! I prefer my 16th century Italian villa and its roof-garden.
Toorak is the richest suburb in Melbourne……We impossible to live there in our lifetime. :-(
The house wants too much of itself. They didn't edit sufficiently. And it's all that's in vogue at the moment, at the same time.
I don’t get why people just leave raw concrete without finishing it
If u get a scratch from it it’s very toxic to flesh wounds
As insufferable as Australians are they do design great homes
A massively cringe comment on your behalf it must be said :)
Why are Australians insufferable? I think they’re cool and happening…
What’s with this channel and the concrete - don’t you guys have some environmentally friendly material to show ?
This is bad and so is the staircase, it looks like post soviet ugly art from the 80s, it’s so dark
Not always a huge fan of using so many materials (concrete, timber, terrazzo, stone) since it can be easy to lose a sense of groundedness, but I do like the approach here.
