Pettigrew–Boyd, 2019
The first home by architect Robin Boyd, the 1943 Pettigrew House is perched above the picturesque Yarra Bend. It remained in the hands of the original owner until acquired in 2015 with a view to reconfigure it as the home of a young family while respecting the integrity of its heritage standing. Extensive research into Boyd’s principals and aesthetic led to a palette of honest, natural materials and reduced architectural gesture. This new base line has been embellished with plush carpeting and custom joinery.
