Architect Designs Dream Home for Parents Using Unique Materials (House Tour)

Archier Architect designs dream home in the form of View House - a two-storey home located in Sandy Bay, Tasmania. View House - taking its name from the breathtaking views of Hobart - was designed by Chris Haddad for his parents with the intention of allowing them to age in place. View House is a construction of unique materials from Artedomus and a rich colour palette, forming a home of dynamic and contrasting forms.
Situated on a suburban block surrounded by bushland, the brief was to craft a dream home that is inviting, warm and comfortable. Alongside Artedomus, Archier Architect designs dream home View House with attention paid to materiality, interior design and architecture. The home needed to be functional without compromising on aesthetic or material quality, making Artedomus the natural partnership choice.
Archier Architect Designs Dream Home in Tasmania, paying special attention to the way light moves through the space, bringing life to the finishes and surfaces throughout. The home is buried deep into the Hobart hillside and the home’s aesthetic replicates this experience. The courtyard spaces bring light down into the house and lift the spaces upwards. During construction of the courtyard space, a rock from beneath the ground could not be moved; the courtyard was then turned into a fern garden, with the immovable rock on display, representing the land below the surface and as a visual connection to the mountains nearby.
The black brick façade stands as an imposing street presence, but this is broken up with the use of terracotta in the front of the home and throughout the interior spaces. Terracotta is embraced throughout the house, adding colour and warmth that bounces off the timber ceiling. The Terracotta tiles - Cotto Manetti Arrotato Da Crudo (Rustic) from Artedomus - contrasts against the textured clay tiles in the lobby - INAX Homura Tiles, Japanese tiles also from Artedomus.
Architect designs dream home which features many quality Artedomus products and unique materials, including Manetti Terracotta and INAX Format Tiles in the upstairs bathrooms, as well as the Agape Spin Mirror, Agape Normal Bath, Agape Pear Basins and the Agape Pear 2 Sanitary-ware. The Vigo Lena Marble featured in both the kitchen and the bathroom space connects two separate areas in a seamless and sophistication nod to balance. Successfully giving his parents a space that they can live happily within, Archier architect designs dream home in View House.

Just stunning. So stately, clean, modern, and yet cozy, warm, and inviting at the same time. Looks like it would be lovely to live in.

[@latenightkitchen339]

For a second I thought I was going to cry - the design is breathtaking and the diagonal views between rooms is 300IQ.

[@1redchief1]

what an incredibly thoughtful and stunning architectural tribute for the deep love of two people; this son knows life and time never stops. . . not even our moms and dads. Do not be afraid to design/plan for AGING IN PLACE -- we are.

[@jamessmith1400]

I defy anyone to find a better design-centric YT channel! But that's just my point of view.....

[@SD-qt1fs]

Never too small is a great channel too

[@_edd.ie_.o.8101]

I see what you did there

[@luzhou8389]

Because you know who is going to live there, the house is more than simply a work of art; it's also filled with affection.

[@or9481]

I think this might be my favorite of the Local Project videos. Really intrigued by the use of space and materials. Everything seems so complimentary and serve to highlight the beautiful views. Wow.

[@prashanthb6521]

Very nice. Elegant and not boring at all.

[@panamericaco]

Never wanted to be an architect but seeing houses like this makes we want to know how they come up with all these creative ideas for using lines, materials, etc

[@sgb1538]

If you look at a house with sensual and artistic design, I feel overwhelmed and happy. Also, a little bit of anticipation and hope about living in a place like that motivates my life

[@qomarqomarudin7307]

Your mom and dad should be proud of you

[@darkskyimages5911]

What makes this home truly beautiful is not just the design of the interior and exterior alone - it's that everything has been taking into consideration, and the entire house is imbued with the architect's love for his parents. It's palpable. It's beautiful.

[@DanDauzacker]

As a Architect, I dream to build the perfect house to my parents. Trully inspiring.

[@jimmymurray6082]

Omg is this the first time I've cried watching one of these I lost it when he said that last line.

[@zebedeekatzadi7496]

The black looks pretty awesome...

[@elizabethjote8732]

Love the balance of masculine and feminine in here and the story of the rock that wouldn't break in the courtyard.

[@cloverazar5315]

Breathtaking! The attention paid to materials is incredible, and the fern garden made me say “oh wow” aloud. The architect’s parents are very fortunate!

[@vadimk6331]

Lovely house - lovely project .. lovely place. God bless your parents - they did a good job creating their son...

[@Qdub34]

I change my vote; this is the most beautiful house I've ever seen. It's so thoughtful. Every single detail makes sense.

[@melraine919]

Stunning 🤩. England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@douglasyong6939]

Terracotta and grey... never knew that they worked so well together

[@brianm.80]

This home is so stunning. What a thoughtful (and beautiful) project for his parents.

[@hardylaskey563]

magnificent . thank you for presentation it was most inspiring. most beautiful.

[@Haarslevx]

I love black houses with dark interieur like this one!

[@dear_darling]

DREAMS DO COME TRUE 💖💎⭐️👏🏼

[@middler5212]

So beautiful. The house is in the middle of everything, but the interior still feels so open yet private. Love the exterior. Feels like a midcentury modern motel meets Bond villain hideaway … in only the best way possible!

[@fredsalfa]

Beautiful house with dark and moody tones that work so well together. Very well thought out and considered. Even the odd colour matches sit in harmony with the whole house.

[@MJ-ug5mo]

Such an incredibly beautiful home! I love all the different materials used, especially the terracotta and the attention paid to the lighting is outstanding! What a wonderful home for this retired couple and may you have many years ahead to enjoy❤

[@tonyshawley7536]

It better be as good inside as it looks on the out. & It most definitely is. Everything is so beautifully thought out. Architecture that's detailed in simplicity.

[@hamburgveganc6284]

I’m in love with the dark facade and the distribution inside…AND with the architect as well- he’s quite handsome! ;-).

[@m-designstudio4528]

[@goldenlabelstudio]

Stunning. It’s clean and modern without feeling stark or cold.

[@salimmalik1068]

It is not just a house but piece of art. It inspired me in many ways to design my future home where I'm going to have my parents with me. Thank you 😊 💓

[@DemureDarlings]

Just you thinking of your parents in that way, is really so beautiful. You’ve already done enough in your heart of hearts when you have these thoughts 💭

[@exoticjam7176]

Once again I love the experience you get from watching these videos~~

[@jacksonhides482]

Huge fan of Archier's work and love the black facade, can't wait.

[@loredanaruggeri2246]

Such a beautiful home and an incredibly thoughtful gesture to one's parents.

[@allthingstoallmen8912]

He did his parents proud! Heck I'm not even related to him and I'm proud of him...this house is absolutely stunning!

[@wRAAh]

YES. When I get a few decades older, I will be contacting you fellas and felettes.

[@heynerneumann8077]

Investing in Real Estate now should be in every wise individuals list, in time you'd be ecstatic with the decision you made today. I have profitable platforms and opportunities for you to do so.

[@stom1004]

Thank you for the Korean caption.

[@gavinhosie]

what a beautiful home - i am sure your parents absolutely love it.

[@dreamskeepmesane]

I will always love the contrast between the stark black exterior and the warm and inviting interior with a lot of timber. Beautiful house, would also love to retire here

[@Tiahramiller]

Ughhh breath taking 😍

[@Bijuuu007]

Thank you for subtitles french

[@BrigitteDeSotoMenendez]

Wow just tasteful, exquisite. I think even if the home is not to your aesthetic there is so much to appreciate about the home. I'm so impressed.

[@fransirahome]

Unique courtyard. And beautiful clay tile. I like the lighting too.

[@pf5658]

Great design and I like the color scheme. What lucky parents to she their son design such a beautiful home for them.

[@sirgurl]

Adore the stark black of the building, softened with the terracotta. The INAX tiles and brushed concrete add such a beautiful depth, contrasting against the wooden ceiling.

[@m-designstudio4528]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3uUoH-Yicx_m7c

[@nikkilogan7726]

Such pure beauty! The view, the materials, the color, the story, everything was perfection! This home sold me! Really love this home! Thanks Local Project! 😎🥰💖

[@ginafriend1690]

It's lovely with its grand details! That car! Wonderful with great respect, to have your child beable to do such for you! As not shown, the only thing missing is an elevator. Perhaps will be added in time. Old folks and anyone with any ailmens/disabilities needs one, if isnt a ranch style!

[@overflowinglifewithsepetig6467]

Amazing

[@mellostation]

The INAX tiles are absolutely gorgeous.

In love with the house and specially the lighting. Sublime mix of textures.

[@savedbybravado4382]

Beautiful

[@TheAlexxalm]

My single mother struggles and deals with a lot of terrible workplace bs, just to save up enough money to buy property in Washington State. And this has inspired me to keep helping despite all the setbacks. I plan on surprising her when I design the home for her. Thank you for this.

[@AgentAO7]

In the thumbnail, I thought it was a townhouse development, only to find out it’s just a single home! That house is huge!!!! Love the overall design & color palette. ❤️👍

[@camilla3001]

Love the modernity of this home 💜

[@Alby911]

Incredible house in an amazing location. Wow!

[@87minicooper]

What. A. Gorgeous. Guy.

[@guesswhoo3512]

The best house

[@trizvfx]

Absolutely stunning tile choices.

[@equipadont]

A retirement house that gives you a sense of being buried. Nice

[@11vag]

One of the most beautiful projects I've seen in this channel.

[@serpserpserp]

Can't beat the location.

[@LeodiAstoriaXIII]

Incredible! Love the material use.

[@moistydoooood]

[@pengwang8496]

Great Design

Very clever videography / editing to support the story at 5:00. Haven't seen that before. Love it!

[@ross323]

Really love the indirect lighting fixtures!! Will def incorporate it in my home

[@dzungtong]

[@stephaniek6193]

This house looks so gorgeous! Can't wait to see it :)

[@BeatrizSilwa]

Fantastic.

[@andgo1400]

It is a beautiful house but at the same time I have the impression I have seen this house in so many other recent designs; similar esthetics, materials, minimalist arrangement of the spaces, colour scheme, tiles, etc., dark and moody.

[@nordicvolkan]

Wow the opulence level is breathtaking .

[@ModernARQ]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@joshseibert]

This is absolutely beautiful. The tones and materials work so well together.

[@62Cristoforo]

I love the rock left in situ. Overall a masterpiece, but a small critique, if I may, I found the lower level bathroom more utilitarian, than cosy and inviting.

[@Batwomenom]

beautiful🤍love it!

[@calebmorici6370]

Simply beautiful🙏🏼❤️

[@sageakporherhe783]

First video, SUBSCRIBED.

[@amerk1]
