An Architect's Own Minimalist Home (House Tour)

From Selzer Design Studio’s renovation of an Edwardian dwelling emerges Armadale House, a bright minimalist home firmly connected to the outdoors.

Situated in Victoria’s leafy suburb of Armadale, Armadale House is a single-fronted weatherboard residence. Selzer Design Studio ensures that the minimalist home retains its appearance as a single-storey house, despite the renovation making it a double storey volume.

Internally, Selzer Design Studio focuses their efforts on crafting a soft and light-filled interior landscape within the minimalist home. In the bedroom, lightweight linen bedsheets interact with the coarse fabric of the bed upholstery and the velvety texture of the rug beneath.

The remainder of Armadale House reinforces its status as a lesson in renovation. In consideration of the building’s heritage, Selzer Design Studio preserves the traditional Edwardian architraves. Floor-to-ceiling glazing at the rear of the property enable the minimalist home to embrace its natural, external environment.

Armadale House stands as a successful reimagination of the building of old. Opening the minimalist home to its surroundings, Selzer Design Studio improves the standard of the residential experience.

Children raised in the sweet light and calm of this home will bring their own much-needed love and light to the world - thank you!

[AlexandraKarlyn]

The use of the mirror to hid the TV was so well executed. She did a really great job of making the house feel like a home, while not taking away from her aesthetic. It's also a very practical home which I love. Bravo!

[AJ-rclr]

Really prove you don't need a mansion to really make a house so homey, this is so perfect in it's way, it's not a big house, but everything has a purpose and are trully well designed, so in love with the arhitecture and interior

[SoundGuyKelz]

The common thread across all the comments - this is an unquestionable beautiful design that's so simple yet so tasteful. You don't need to have a busy design with all the shiny objects to achieve quality. This is a true definition of a home with its amazing family.

Her description and design feels very honest, human. A very enjoyable episode.

[cassiekeller]

Wow. I almost cried watching this video. The light and greenery is incredibly stunning. Feels like a soothing and peaceful home! Amazing work

[GideonNieuwoudtHero]

The highlight of my week, every week.

[esra_feelit]

I’ve seen hundreds of homes through many outlets . This is by far my favorite home. ⚡️⚡️⚡️

[agnesdesiderio]

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!!! MODERN, CLEAN, TRANQUIL, FUNCTIONAL AND HOMEY.

[SuperHachirou]

That's the cleanest kitchen i've seen in my whole career as an architect. Love it!

[Fjord_]

The living-kitchen area so beautiful & peaceful, so nice ideas -like the hiding of the TV by a mirror.

[jacksonhides]

The use of materials to elevate the space and create a sense of luxury on a modest scale is incredibly inspiring.

[lyzabethlopez]

absolutely stunning... love every detail.

[thatapartmentgirl]

I love the modern feeling the house evokes. So cozy and soft and airy.

[jl]

Greetings from the U.S.A this one is a winner. I love the subdued palette, the unique "materiality", and the generous amount of fenestration in the kitchen

[missladydollette]

Ive been looking for a youtube home tour that reflects exactly what is on my ind and I'm confident in saying this is the closest I've seen. I love the sunlight, the plants and mainly the arches. I love every single detail of this that makes it not just a house but a home

[polinaa]

Sometimes a home can be extremely beautiful and artsy, with various details, which, despite being exciting, do not add up to the coziness and do not give these home vibes. There are a lot of great things about purely aesthetic designs, but this one is actually really pleasing and at the same time livable. It's stunning, but not over the top.

[ludwig]

The mirror being used to cover the television is brilliant

[OSDOENTES]

This house is an absolute masterpiece.

Edwardian house in front and modern minimalis inside. Beautiful home.
