Inside Robin Boyd’s Walsh Street House

I am VERY excited to report that when John and I visit Melbourne at the end of next week, we’ll be attending a very exclusive party at Robin Boyd’s fabulous Walsh Street House. The party, organised by Outré Gallery is hailed as a ‘mid-century soiree’ and will include none other than American artist Shag.

So, in honour of this party and Shag’s latest visit to Australia, here are some pictures inside the glorious Walsh Street House in South Yarra. Boyd designed this home for his family to reside in back in 1958, and it’s now considered to be one of the architectural icons of Australia. It goes without saying that I’m very excited to be able to attend a party in this house (not to mention the fact that I’ll be meeting the lovely Jenny Butler from Apartment Therapy there!). For more information about Robin Boyd’s work, visit the Robin Boyd Foundation website.

More pictures from my Apartment Therapy photo shoot

I thought I'd upload a few extra images that I took for the Apartment Therapy House Call. Although many of the images weren't of great quality (since I'm not the world's greatest photographer or interior stylist!), these are some additional favourites of mine.

I really quite like this one...

Living room from a different perspective...

View of the living area from the dining room...

Some of my favourite things from some special friends...

Suitcases and other cute things in the bedroom (including the red suitcase, which I've had since I was little - it still holds my childhood drawings and paintings)...

And, finally, another nice shot of the office!

Thank you to everyone who commented here and on the Apartment Therapy site - the feedback means a lot to me, and hopefully our home will continue to improve over the years to come!

I am very proud to declare that, as of today, our place has been featured as a before-and-after House Call on Apartment Therapy! Click here to see it.

I am extremely pleased with how it looks, and surprised and excited to receive such positive comments from the AT readers so far (because, let's face it, I'm not an interior design expert by any means). A huge thank you to Jenny Butler for arranging the tour!
