We hope you enjoyed the work of art that is La Scala. Designed and built by the owners - Richards & Spence, this exceptional and monolithic home was recently featured in our Book: 10 - Celebrating 10 Issues of The Local Project. For more of the very best architecture and design from our first 10 issues, make sure to order our hardcopy book - thelocalproject.com.au/product/10-celebrating-10-issues-of-the-local-project/

Makes me think of the term "rough luxe" where a project might include leaving exposed a wall with old, torn, wallpaper discovered during renovation to lend some texture and history to a space that might otherwise have been totally white-washed both figuratively and literally.

@@TheLocalProject Dear The Local Project Team, You guys are really doing a great job. You give us something to dream about. These projects that you present are exceptional examples of architecture, craftsmanship and creativity that are on a level that is unknown to us here in Germany. My family roots are in Greece and there I have always admired the interior doors of my in-laws house. When I asked who made these beautiful doors, I was told that it was a carpenter who came back to Greece from Australia. No wonder! Your craftsmanship is inimitable! Theodora Zouroufidou

How the nanny state of Australia didn't manage to ruin that building by forcing hand rails in a lot of obvious areas is beyond me. This is one of the best examples of a blend between Brutalist architecture and Modernist architecture, and how it just seamlessly blends into the surrounding area. Impressively timeless interpretation of both Brutalist architecture and Modernist architecture. It reminds me a lot of Arthur Erickson's work. Thank you for sharing this gem!

The house is thought provoking , interesting and very well chosen…what’s driving me crazy is the art work, the drawing or painting of the horse….on the easel,the white space beneath the horse is so beautiful, it’s what isn’t there that is so restful, space for thought and movement.

Would be perfect in the kitchen galley, behind the sink, for brightening, breathing life and warmth! Cool the vegetation seeps through, but not so sure I care for the bugs it would bring. Nice structure nonetheless.

My impression is that this is some post-apocalyptic space. It was a small museum or maybe, like they say a restaurant, but that world was destroyed. Now, everything is overgrown with vegetation, and survivors moved in and made it their home. They collected a bunch of eclectic, random furniture and made their bedroom in a giant dining hall. I like the brutalist architecture mixed with lush vegetation. It softens the image and makes it more livable. Very dramatic!
