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 OutrĂ© 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!).
