Inside a Minimalist Home with a Magical Garden (House Tour)

- Increasing the efficiency of an existing residence, Kart Projects crafts K House, a minimalist home with a considered spatial plan. A house tour of the residence reveals a dwelling strongly connected to its external garden space, speaking to the virtues of mindful design.
Located in the Melbourne suburb of Fairfield, House K possesses a similar architectural history to the neighbouring builds. A weatherboard residence, the existing home was slightly worn and featured a small extension that was almost unusable. The original brief requested the existing house be reinterpreted as a minimalist home with a new extension added to allow for an altered internal layout. However, the condition of the essential architecture of the house meant that a more substantial renovation was required. The resulting minimalist home retains much of the original garden space and effortlessly connects the landscape to the interior.
Though repainted, the minimalist home retains its original weatherboard façade. Only the addition of a red fence outside the building offers a clue to the renovation work that lies beyond. A house tour of the home begins with a corridor intentionally kept dark in order to showcase the artwork purchased by the client. Compressing down into a steel transition space, the corridor leads to a large pivot door. A nearby study and library space represents the last portion of the original house. The extension space is defined by a large storage volume and day bed, which together establish different zones, including the living room and dining area. Reinforcing the spatial plan, a coffered ceiling gently delineates the areas below.
Extending the spatial strategies of the interior into the garden, Kart Projects creates a series of social amenities. The pool sits elevated on one side - in proximity to an outdoor dining area - whilst the space behind is detailed by a small deck and lawn which maximise the functionality of the landscape. Turning to face the exterior of the minimalist home, occupants will see a red-painted façade exclusive to the rear of the building.
In materiality, House K reflects a taste for minimalism. The material palette is stripped back, consisting primarily of timber-lined features sitting below the coffered ceiling. In the kitchen, the visual impact of a black kitchen island and bench is contained by means of elevation, so that the amenities appear to float in place. In addition, the interior design of the home is uplifted by the inclusion of multiple skylights.
Exerting influence over all aspects of the project - including the architecture, interior design and garden landscaping - Kart Projects establishes a cohesive and contemporary home. House K embodies the thorough execution of a singular design concept, expressing the importance of effective spatial planning during renovation projects.

Hi. What material did they use for the floor? Thank you.
The back addition looks like a slice of paradise! Love the way Melbourne renovation project houses might look like a simple quaint traditional cottage in the front but could be an actual modern spaceship in the back and you'd never know from the street ❤️
"Slice of paradise."
I concur!
Lots'a love, cheers, & Mabuhay, from tropical Philippines!
I love this home and walk past it daily. Very well considered treatments of all spaces. I knew something good was tucked behind that cool facade. Well done to the architect and clients for allow such a transformation.
Very contemporary and well done! I love the compactness but also the variety and different perspectives.
Love the built in kitchen seat. Also the music/office area with kitchen view. Hidden TV was a nice touch too. The garden/pool looks like an escape from the world. Great job.
Art - Architecture - Sophisticated - Simplicity !
Design is often understated...where the ordinary as treated as extraordinary.
Obvious care and attention is given to the original volume of the house...details are carefully added...in a very intentional way.
Success...is never loud.
Good job.

I wish UK architects were this creative, looks really nice
This was different - in a good way! ❤
0:08 cars and people going backwards.
Nice house
love that yard and I like the black part of the kitchen. I am not a fan of the general color scheme there but if the owners picked it, they must've liked it.
Very beautiful mimalPLYst house!!!👍👍👍
the exterior color schemes compliment real well, red is hot.
Beautyful. I like the use of the intense red colour to add to the modern feeling.
Also the use of the vegetation to hide the concrete box of the pool.
The cenital light in the kitchen is lovely as well as useful. GJ. :-)
The way he explained the solid walls becoming dashed lines in the actual built project is so good. Such a bold extension, and good job doing that garden, but I feel like the house isn't fully revealed here.
Wonderful!
The zen of fabulous
The majority of this channel is an excellent example of good content not needing gimmicky presentation. Thank you for not presenting yourself as a typical, annoying, socially-delayed TH-camr that, for some reason, feels compelled to turn everything into a catchphrase.
_“Whatzup JamFam!?! Itz yaboi Whammy Jammy commin atcha…”_
It doesn’t confuse me to see so many socially-delayed children (TH-camrs) acting like fools. It confuses me that it doesn’t appear to bother anyone but me. It’s even satirized in popular media (Corey from Corey’s World, Family Guy) and people *still* behave that way. Am I the only real person here, and everyone else is simply code in the alien computer simulation?
I like the street view and the pool.
Lovely choice of colours for the facade 👍👍
Love this overall. Not a fan of the timber but that is just personal taste. Some fresh ideas for my future Adelaide reno.
Love it !!!!!
I like the pool
Good work! Awesome project
What a beautiful well thought and sympathetic renovation. One of my preferred projects on this channel.
This home is very Gorgeous 😊
Nine design 👍
Love the layout
Beautiful home 🥰🥰🥰🥰.
Looks sick 👍 well done
This is art
luv luv luv
Love from keral❤️
Out side of house is pretty ~
Beautiful house. Sad to loose the period details of the original, but I suppose that at some point a total redo is unavoidable. The architect did a great job signaling the change on the exterior.
I'd love to know where they got the tiles in the bathroom! Although, we probably can't get them here in New Zealand...
Prachtig!
The red fence and wall in the back- is that made out of wood?
I’d like to have seen a before and after floor plan. Some channels do this and it’s so interesting.
🔥
The pink art is cool. Any idea who the artist is?
😍
❤👍🏻
This house has some incredible ideas and looks stunning.
Although having the music system sitting in the middle/end of what looks like a corridor seems strange!
Does the music travel around the house OK, or does it get muffled as it has to bounce off of walls?
It looks great but I would of put it on the OTHER SIDE of the central box, actually in the living room!
But hey, its THEIR HOUSE, they can have it THEIR WAY!!
Cute shack
It looks freaking amazing !!!! but what's up with the bedrooms?
Marine ply is a nicer lining than plaster
Love this renovation and 99% of it is great. Just one thing I don't think works, which is mixing the fishes with the taps, then with yet another finish on the pendant.... looks very miss matched and everything was an after thought rather than a deliberate choice but I imagine that's the interiour designers fault.
00:08 - Clear Tenet influence detected. 😉
@2:54 That motorized horizontal TV sliding mount is cool. Anyone know where one can buy those?
What is the material of that red façade? Is it painted timber? Zinc?
Does anybody know which brand the baby pink chair is. 4.16 time
I love the red and black exteriors, and that red fence in the front is brilliant, but as much as I like modern aesthetics, I'm not as much of a fan of the interior.
Does the pool has to be elevated to conform with Australia's laws?
As far as I know, no. But they do need to be fenced to safety specs.
No, it’s cheaper to construct pools that are elevated as a huge chuck of a pool budget is the earth works. I’m wondering if they don’t have a fence because the pool walls act as one for reg purposes?
@@FairleyTrashed Yeap that's what I was thinking too. I understand the safety rule but I'm not a big fan of it to be honest, most of this houses would look way better without those fences.
This to me is a case of a well designed extension that is just a bit over styled with the colors and millennial boutique hotel art. But the landscaping and pool design in the back are fabulous. It’s not easy to make an elevated pool look this luxurious.
did we see the inside of the extension ?
BEAUTIFUL house, but the complete lack of floor and table lamps says a lot about light design not being a priority
The front facade should all be black
Me gustaría que hablarán menos de la experiencia y más de los materiales y procesos constructivos.
Nice house, only that kitchen looks depressing.
The muted colors of the front facade. It's black and white! And...the "background music" is so loud, closed caption must be turned on to get anything out of this. Don't they teach sound mixing for the consumer anymore? Or is it just sound mixing for the mixer.
Having a pool in Melbourne is ridiculous. You can only use one month a year and if you are lucky. We have a terrible weather.
Haha come to Oslo
I wish I could say I like this video, because it is beautiful. But you lost me several times because you never present how the entirety of the addition relates to the existing house. Even if briefly, you should show a plan and section. All I'm seeing is curated camera moves of lovely spaces without any context of how it all goes together into an integrated space. For example, how does 2:10 relate to 2:30 and then 2:40? You say the words "left" and "right" but I really have to work hard to see these connections. It's a very disjointed presentation of a house that I'm sure is probably integrated, but I get no mental model of the entirety of the space. You seem to be in love with slow-mo camera moves for the sake of a beautiful graphic. But it doesn't help to understand how the house is a "whole."
The integration of modernism is sublime, however the trend of black in the kitchen escapes me for it seems to eat light and life.
dont understand the conflict between the old world charming exterior and the ultra modern super urban interior. i'm sure the owners love it but dang it looks cold hard and sterile after the expectations set by the victorian exterior
🤔
modern houses doesn't even feel like home it feels kinda disturbing
You couldn't get me to live with neighbor's so close if you paid me $1M
What about the garden :(
Yes the garden
I liked the design of the house, but the sound design of the video made me really uncomfortable ^^
yikes
Is not for me , only the windows and lighting at back is improvement, anything else I find disappointing..
I really enjoy your program australian design is so great. As an australian living in USA for many years its very refreshing to see good design as american design is so boring and backward here in US and california. The only thing I might suggest is give your presenters a coffee before they come on, they so droning and dull, and take them shopping, they look like granny dressed them. Designers have great design talent but no personal style.
These people always talk in questions......hard to block that out and pay attention to the video. Could they do a voiceover in these videos? That was a question.
i dont know if you could still call this minimalist
Love the houses but really don’t like the camerawork. Only moving shots and no clear overviews. Pretty frustrating to watch
It's not my favourite house I've seen on here. It feels a little disjointed, lacking in design direction. Whatever the subjective case, it's not for me.
It is lovely but you cannot call this minimalist.
Nice house, nice video; AWFULL 'background" sound. Way too loud and intrusive as well as gloomy. This ruins the presentation!
Plywood looks so cheap in the kitchen😏 the most ugly material, hear me out
WHY are these ALWAYS edited so that the music is louder than the speaking? EXTREMELY annoying.
To messy and cluttered.
