An Architect's Home That Explores Art and Architecture (House Tour)

- Nestled in a tree-lined street in the affluent suburb of Toorak in Melbourne, JARtB House is an architect's home that explores art and architecture. Director of international award-winning architecture firm Kavellaris Urban Design (KUD), Billy Kavellaris designed his house with a view to creating both an art gallery and a family home.
The design explores the idea that art and architecture are separate disciplines but also that art can be fused with everyday life. A white circulation strip through the house doubles as a gallery, displaying the architect’s extensive art collection. Some pieces, such as the lofty giraffe sculptures, were designed especially for the space within the architect's own home. The upper floor is ensconced in a custom mural created by Spanish artist duo PichiAvo. Made up of 13 panels stitched together across the facade of the house, this artwork can be experienced from both inside and outside the house.
The architecture and interior design can also be seen as art itself, with unusual and opulent staircases connecting floors, and uniquely shaped openings and furniture pieces. Bespoke timber flooring and panelling created by Made by Storey is used throughout the home on walls and floors, creating a sense of cohesion and warmth. Other materials, such as concrete and steel, are carefully chosen for atmosphere and visual interest, while colour is largely provided by the artworks.

Beautiful showcase of artisans and craftsmen creating a one of a kind contemporary livable home. Well done!
Billy will be grateful for the compliments Tim, cheers!
Actual fucking art. This house blows me away.
It's such a special project - glad you enjoyed it Anthea!
New York City and LA designers should take note, this is how you make an inviting and livable "art gallery" HOME!!
This house literally makes me want to vomit it’s so tacky
@@aphexorbit6391 that's probably why you don't live in it!
You can't buy taste & this architect has impeccable taste and style. This was beautiful!
I am in absolute awe, just gorgeous
The shots and editing of you guys are the best among all real estate videos I’ve seen on tv and youtube.
Much appreciated Gerald 🙏
Love the staircase and the way light moves throughout the house; however, I felt that there wasn't enough negative space to let the art compete. The building and freestanding art were constantly in competition that I wasn't able to truly appreciate it. Then again, I'm a minimalist, so maybe that's why. I definitely agree that architects are and should be seen as artists.
Hey Lexa - we believe that was Billy's intentions; a juxtaposition of art and architecture & an exploration of their relationship (against and with one another). Completely agreed, architects are artists & that staircase.. amazing! 🙂
This home is truely a masterpiece. The landscaping is gorgeous and the pool very inviting. Absolutely gorgeous home.
It's rare to see designs incorporating different geometries work so elegantly together. Well done!
Glad you like it!
This is truly an art home! Love the selection of materials, has some of minimalistic principle while also has a art gallery type of feel that is immersive and a comfortable home.
epic cinematography and editing. that painting on the concrete , with that neutral lighting ... simply breath taking .
Glad you enjoyed the video!
This is contemporary design as its highest level! A M A Z I N G
Wow. The house is amazing, but can we take a moment to appreciate the editing in this vid?
Yes we can!
It is seeing structures built like this that deeply motivates me as an Architect!
One word describes it all -- Unrivalled! Thanks for the production, filling our lives with serenity.
I love art and this house just a garden of arts in a piece of art!
Exactly right, it's a treasure cove of art. Those custom-made giraffe's are our favourite pieces.
@@TheLocalProject amazing! And the perfect spot in which the giraffes were placed, and how connected between the two different ceilings by making their neck look out from under the other ceiling, as if they were visitors looking inside! 😄 beautiful ❤️
Everything is perfect! Video, Music, House, Interior, Art... Incredible.
Glad you enjoyed it Jan!
Wow, Australia has come of age. Stunning house, stunning art, all working together
the way the natural lights get in... 🙌
I really wish you guys did in depth tours of these houses like on architectural digest.
We'll be experimenting with longer format videos in the near future - keep an eye out for them! 😉
@@TheLocalProject love to hear that. 🖤 The short & cinematic shots grasping the beauty of the building & interior are amazing but longer, coherent tours often help to get a better feel & overall experience of the space in person.
@@TheLocalProject I will definitely keep an eye out for them.
I saw this home from Best Houses Australia or Open Homes Australia!
A home combined with art, architecture & Interior design, all in one....So cool!
Thanks Local Project!
I appreciate this house / gallery, stunning art and statement pieces!
Glad you like it Elaine - it's certainly a special project!
Wow, Billy, you have created a masterpiece. as a current arch student, I could only dream to learn from you later down the track. well done!!
Mind-blowing! This could have gone wrong in so many different ways-- but it didn't. A testament to the brilliant talents that came together to make this happen. All I can do is sit here and shake my head in amazement...
An architect is not only most definitely an artist but he's the one to affect our emotions in the greatest manner
Absolutely INCREDIBLE!! WoW!! Totally in love with this house. well done indeed!
So glad i found your channel!! The editing, camera work and content is incredible.
Enjoyed every second of it! Bravo!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is my comfort channel
breathtaking
Beautiful and well put together maestro!

Absolutely stunning!!
This house is an artistic master piece... The juxtaposition of the elements is really amazing
Completely agreed! 👌
Unbelievably beautiful 😍
Your vision is so sophisticated.
Been waiting for this video!
Hope it was worth the wait! 🙂
Exceeded it!!!!
The most beautiful house ❤
This entire video is a piece of Art!!!❤️🥰😍🤯
Thanks Jade, glad you enjoyed!
Dope music :)
Glad you enjoyed it 😉
I'm so happy that I've stumbled upon this channel!
Welcome aboard!
very nicely made video, and Toorak is the place!
Absolutely astonoshing, this house is both modern and post-modern, gorgeous!
Just Wonderfull
Beautiful sharing have a good day
Stay blessed and connected
Thank you! You too!
Wow 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Our thoughts exactly 😍
Quite appealing interior👍👍👍
Amazing love it!
Glad you like it Jonathan, cheers!
As close to a modern day creative's dream home as I've ever seen. Sumptuous!
Agreed!
Just beautiful
Glad you think so Paula!
Increíble, una pasada de casa.
That staircase 🤩
Very beautiful house !!
We agree!
It would be cool to be able to experience the way the light tracks throughout the day from inside the house.
these local projects are so fine!
Thanks Efrain, glad you're enjoying them!
Magnifique
Absolutely stunning pieces and architecture
We agree!
Well done
Better than all glass-paneled similar-looking Million Dollar Homes in LA and a few other places. A house is not a glass-paneled wall with beautiful views on the outside. How the inside of the house looks matters too.
That is magic. May I come live there?
Yes you may.
I fall in love
Us too!
Wow.
I saw the archiectural plans years ago, they were the first piece of art in this project
It would be amazing to have seen the originals plans and how they relate to the finished house now!
Amazing music on this one!! Compliments this uniquely beautiful house. Billy is a true master of his craft.
Glad you enjoyed the video Myles! Agreed, Billy really is.
My dream house!❤🎨🏡
I always dream of building my own house, but this one is it, I will buy it someday
What a house it would be to live in..!
AWESOME
Glad you enjoyed the video Adil!
His house look like museum
Now that's a home.
I'm just speechless. OMG can you imagine living inside a masterpiece like this. Everything looks perfect. WOW. And the idea make the upstairs like this, its like they are living in a cathedral. I love it🤩🤩
Stunning isn't it..! Hope you enjoyed the video Dave!
@@TheLocalProject Yes I did enjoy watching it an all the others..... But this one was really my favorite one.
I want to live here👌🏾
WOW
There are some beautiful harmonies, themes and textures occuring here and I understand the Architects desire to contrast and contradict some of these elements. But for me its too messy almost like hes thrown the art works together without any thought. And Im sure thats the look he was after. However I love the house and If I were to buy it Id just re-arrange the artworks which is just fine tuning. Im not a fan of the "grafitti" refences on the outside however. That would need to be changed (for me anyway :)
We can guarantee that every one of Billy's artwork and it's position was meticulously planned and positioned - exactly right, each to their own 🙂
@@TheLocalProject Too messy if you ask me. If you think about organised chaos you could refer to any of Picassos colour harmonies fighting and yet complimenting each other. I think thats what the Architect was trying for maybe but it ends up being a little messy imho.
I love it and a fantastic collection. The lighting and outside skin work beautifully. Hope there is some UV protection for the works under that skylight. Guessing it's a challenge for the conservative residents of Toorak.
I love it.
Us too!
Amazing. Bravo
Such a brilliant exploration of architecture, design & art!
Beautiful
Such an iconic home - kudos to Billy!
OMG, Trillions like and best comment for you because you are best on Earth and follower respect you, we need videos in Real 120fps or 240fps 8K HDR10+ resolution clarity quality and Sound in FullHD Surrounded 3D,,
So stoked you’ve picked up this house! It’s one of the best in Melbourne.
We had this one on our radar for almost a couple of years - extremely grateful to have been able to shoot it!
👏👏👏
🙌
What a complicated house to keep clean!
I loved it, very moody. To dark for my taste but it’s been Impeccably done
wonderful
Glad you think so!
wooah
woah....
Right..! 🙃
You know the difference between this house and those million dollars houses that u can find on youtube? This one was made for a family, for a visionary person. Those on youtube were made to flip and sell.
I love how much he resembles to Abhay Deol
Very nice! Love the Led Zeppelin like Stairway to Heaven! Thank you for..."The ART of Fine Living!"
ZENCASSO's Planet "Z"
Glad you enjoyed it!
A M A Z I N G
Yes!
Hi! Love the quality, what camera did u guys use here?
The team uses RED gear!
@@TheLocalProject wow aaaa keep it up!!!!
North south orientation it is not a goodone specially considering the cement which is colder than Other materials. Would be interesting to see the property! Other than that good work!
The high ceilings are compromised by the dark post-modern film covering the first floor windows which is further detrimental to the habitable spaces by giving no aspect and increasing a sense of claustrophobia.
Looks great, but a bit too dark upstairs
Fair enough - we liked Billy's theory of experiencing the mural from both inside and out (in relation to the upper levels), but each to their own of course!
I LIKE
Us too Paulo!
and has a piano!
He is a Greek Jenius >>> Μπραβο !
What are those wood strip around the staircase at 3:10 ? Its shape is so captivating it's like a trimmed down open bambo
Anyone know a brand or place that sell these?
The timber walls are from the Australian company Sculptform 🙂
How long you shoot for this video? Using all that timelapse videos.
Typically a full-day, sometimes two days!
Hello, am looking for info on the glass vanity?
Anyone knows the title of the song ?
How do the wealthy neighbours like that graffiti? Amazed they allowed it
That's a good question!
