    I went past today and I bloody love the concrete block out the front. There should be more giving back to the street. What a lovely gesture.

    I want a house this fun! I think I'm just studying architecture so I can eventually build my own sustainable, biophilic dream house filled with secret doors and cubby houses :D

    Very nice..😊made me smile!! My grandies would love this place. I am old but I would even like a slide from upstairs to downstairs. A swing inside would be great too. Old doesn't mean boring! Love the storage under stairs like a tiny home has.

    I walk past this place daily. I was always curious about what the rest of the design and layout is like since very little of it is visible from the road. I suspected it would be something special. It's very satisfying to get the chance to peak inside. This is very inspiring and thank you for contributing to the creativity in the area.

      migimack Yes I am aware of Epidemic Sound but I don’t like their licensing structure where you are only allowed to use their stuff during the time of the subscription. I use Artlist and the license for the music is perpetual. Still, it’s about finding the right music for the footage and setting the right vibe which I find difficult.
