An Iconic Concrete House Inspired by Sculpture (House Tour)

  • Located in Caulfield on the outskirts of inner Melbourne, Gottlieb House is an iconic concrete house with a unique design that makes an important contribution to Australian architecture. Wood Marsh Architecture designed the house in 1989 for a family who placed full trust in the architects to create a three- to four-bedroom house that would not give anything away from the street.
    Taking this brief in hand, the award-winning architects created an iconic concrete house with a design inspired by the art and sculpture of North American modernist artists Richard Serra and Donald Judd. Looking to the themes of these artists’ work, the architects treated the volumes of the house as separate components and created a sense of consistency between inside and out using a limited palette of concrete with a cement render, glass and stainless steel. With no guttering, the front of the house has been left to patina, creating some interesting visual effects on the concrete exterior.
    The staircase foyer in the Melbourne house is a cylinder-like form that is lit from above via a circular skylight. A glazed sculptural spine splits the building and allows shafts of light to enter the interiors. The bedrooms are contained in boxes that are lowered into the ceiling of the living room below, which gives the impression of a double height space in other areas.
    The clients asked Wood Marsh Architecture to also design all the furniture for the home and requested a large enough space to entertain a party of 300 people. The furniture is as unique as the house itself and adds to the sculptural aesthetic of the building.
    The resulting design by these award-winning architects is an iconic concrete house that adds to the repertoire of Australian architecture.
    Gottlieb House by Wood Marsh Architecture also features across 24 pages in Issue No. 5 of The Local Project's print publication - thelocalproject.com.au/public...

    Absolutely sublime architecture. This is what they try to teach you about space, volume, light and shadow. It’s overbearing and light at the same time. What an outstanding piece of design. 1989 and it’s still as good now - style doesn’t go out of fashion. Imagine having the guts to do this

      Well, the story of modern architecture began in the beginning of XX century. The similar forms and shapes you will find in soviet constructivism/german bauhaus architecture that was born over 100 years ago.

    I can completely see why this house is architecturally important, its design and unconventional layout are very unique, intriguing noteworthy and important. I like how light and shadow work in the house and the way space is used and the visual experience you get as you look around and move through the house. Yet I find myself torn by it. I do like it but at the same time I feel it has all the charm of a post modern office building from the 60's, everything is hard surfaces but nothing that balances that out in some way. There's no warmth in it, nothing that seems comfortable or relaxing, it's extremely formal more like a museum than a home. And perhaps thats the intent and thats fine, it is their home. That said, would I want to live there...

    I absolutely love this channel and have started binging a bunch of your videos. The storytelling and visuals are just perfect. However, because of this, the dialogue audio seems to stand out as something that could be improved. It sounds like the noise gate/reduction is a little too strong so each distinct spoken phrase begins and ends abruptly/unnaturally. It also seems like reverb was added to the spoken parts to make it sound natural, but it sounds like it's a little much as well. In any case, these videos are still soo good. Thanks for all the work that's been put into them!
