A Modern Family Home Inspired by the Australian Lifestyle (House Tour)
Ойын-сауық
Evelyn is a modern family home designed with a family-first philosophy. Crafted by Myers Ellyett Architects, the single-level home stands as the respectful reimagination of a 1911 cottage.
Situated in the Brisbane suburb of Paddington, Evelyn offers a tranquil retreat from the hectic nature of inner-city living. Originally a 1911 cottage, the modern family home pays homage to its history with features such as timber materiality and additional gable roofs, which nod towards design methods of the past.
As a modern family home inspired by the Australian lifestyle, Evelyn engages with the surrounding natural environment. Glassless shutters catch the breeze as it brushes the side of the house whilst sliding panels in the bedrooms open the home to the external greenery. A house tour of the property reveals the home to be organised around a central lawn where children can play, speaking to the importance of family life as stipulated in the design brief.
Raising the standard of a successful modern family home, the interior design of Evelyn also draws upon the colours of the outdoors. Green terrazzo is used in the bathrooms, wrapping the spaces to create the impression of being immersed in the garden. Throughout the house, simple materials and colours are employed to establish a sense of serenity.
Designed to reflect the clients’ lifestyle, Myers Ellyett Architect creates a modern family home that has family life and relaxation at its core. In both interior design and architecture, Evelyn stays true to the vision of family life that was initially shared by both architects and clients.

His voice is intoxicating. Nice house too
"This house is so very much them." - incredible connection made between architect and client, to truly understand one another. Chills.

One of the few examples where the architect’s monologue truly corresponds to what we are seeing. Artistry, softness and practicality. The inside-outside integration is a dream. A renovation that is respectful of the nearing properties yet provides unique spaces for its occupants.
So much beauty achieved without using much artwork or color. Architecture at its best.
Every moment, every frame...took my breath away...for its praciticality, subdued good taste and utmost sensibilities.
beautiful home and great story telling coz of his voice
This might be my favourite home on this channel yet! Really feels like they nailed the brief and achieved all the ‘moments’ they described.

His voice. Oh my. Back to the house, this is probably one of the houses that I truly like. So much vegetation. Even with a limited material palette, this house is truly an amazing edifice. 🤍🤍🤍

I have never seen a house where I had this feeling, if I ever would win the lottery I would want to build this exact same house. In my eyes it's just perfect.

Money shot at 5:48 this is such a beautiful project. i love when architects take on and re-contextualize local vernacular typologies.
I love his voice and how he speaks of the house.
Me encanta la sencillez y serenidad conseguida en esta casa elegante y sin pretensiones
When I saw the house, it makes me feel calm even though I'm tired from work. Everything for me seems so paradise and relaxing. I can't even think of a beach, I mean this is enough for me.
His voice is deep like the ocean and the house is light like air 💕
A very beautiful home. 😍
Yeah, that voice...but more importantly the house is absolutely stunning!! Pure genius!
This is a true home. Very relaxing & open, but very private😊
How wonderful to live in an area with such a lovely climate! This home is stunning! With all the beautiful plants to see, you don't need to have any hanging artwork! Bravo!

I think this is the best home, yard and pool that I’ve ever seen! Paradise.
This house touches my soul. The tangible, incredible atmosphere between nature and human is significant, eye catching.

The transformation of the property, and it's the property which is at the heart of this project, is so distinct because initially the yard seemed to wrap itself around the house. After the renovation it is the house through the extensions such as fences which is wrapped around the yard. I can imagine that the most important aspect of being a parent is to protect the ones you love . . Yes the children. With the yard being enclosed by the house the children can easily play and frolic and no harm will come to them within the house's boundaries. It's such a peaceful and useful yard. The seamless extension of the living area to the yard is wonderful since the weather allows it. It's a wonderful renovation.
I need this guy to read to me always..what a poetic voice and what a stunning home!
Why can't I like this video twice? :)
That is one of the best houses I've ever seen for Brisbane! I lived there for many years and the city is full of houses that do nothing to address the climate. This is exceptional, And very beautiful!
Once in my life time , wanna to stay a couple office days...when we woke up, if we face the nature, birds,and sunrise, that one will be the happiest day .....waiting for that day..thx for sharing such a pleasant videos..
Beautiful home Thumbs up Always 💕The person who is reading this comment, I wish you great success, health , love and happiness 💖

Damn! I love it. I live in the states and we don’t have beautiful homes built like this. Most of ours are cheaply constructed and cookie cutter homes. I wish I can have an Australian design me a home so I can have one built in the sates based on their specifications. Austrians seem to have beautiful homes that are laid back, comfortable and welcoming.
Truly an amazing house! That's one thing I like about Australian Architecture and Design it always has that integral connection with the surrounding because of the use earthy materials and colour palettes.
This entire video is absolute poetry! This home was so thoughtfully designed that is a work of art that functions well for modern human life while connecting those who live in it with our roots.. amazing. 🙏✨🤙🏼
So beautiful. Literally gasped at how serene it feels. Just wow.
Masha Allah ❤️😘 the design of the house is fantastic.

So relaxing..
Exceptional.
This is so perfect, the bedroom with all that plants in the window is just a dream 😍 loved it so much, the only thing I would change for me would be integrate the pool and grass without the fences maybe, but this is only my personal idea

It’s a law in australia to have pool fences greatly reduced kids drowning and near miss drowning which caused many disable children ,my son has cerebral palsy and at his special school there were two kids there with brain damage from near miss drowning.
so far this is my all time favorite house design the details, the design, perfect..
What a stunning design. And so beautifully and poetically shot, edited, and narrated.
This is my dream home. Just lovely
Beautiful.
This is magical!!! And Yes His voice 😍
TOP as usually!
Truly beautiful from every angle. A true family home.
"L" shape...."C" shape AWESOME! Interior--exterior combination.
This is the best house I've ever seen.
It’s like this house burrowed idea from the Chinese courtyard and elevated into stunning Queensland Australian architecture. The level of openness and interaction with vegetation is massive. Hats off to the architect.
This might be my favorite one yet 😦
Simple yet elegant. Love it!
What a Serene home right up my alley I mean just amazing
I really really love the design of this house
the transformation... so satisfying 😍
I love the architecture! Also, I love how the video seems to be telling a story :)
Simply wow!
Absolutely gorgeous. Well done Bill & Jade!
I want to fall asleep every night listening to a podcast of that man's voice. Oh, and the house is gorgeous too.
His voice look like sad.I like your beautiful house so much♥️🥰🥰🥰🌸🌸
Speechless ... just speechless.
Simple yet elegant..
Amazing work. admiring lot.
Absolutely stunning home. L♡ve it!
gorgeous
I really enjoyed this it’s a great house well designed also loved reading the comments especially about the pool fence living in Australia we take it for granted safety first. When I was doing my nursing training in the 1980s they told us the statistics of how drownings reduced when pool fences were made law. It’s like the reduction in motor vehicle fatalities when seat belts were made law.
Beautiful! Best regards from Brasília/Brazil
Gorgeous!
This is truly beautiful, simply put!
So impressed with the design.
It's a house of Heaven.... A house in betwen the trees(nature)...hatts Off....😍
