    I watched this a few days ago but didn't get a chance to comment... I've been thinking about this building ever since - how is this not taught more at uni?! How is this the first time I'm encountering this building?! Just brilliant.. Seems like Heide II did DfMA before it was cool. Also, this video kind of seems like Andrew's audition tape to be the new host of Grand Designs (or similar, since Andrew probably wouldn't stoop to Grand Designs....)
    Looking forward to visiting when I next come to Melbourne!

    I visited the museum today and I have to say this my favourite space I have ever experienced. I came to look at the art, not knowing anything about the house and was completely blown away. I immediately fell in love with the architecture and the feeling you get when you are both inside and outside. I came away wanting to know more about the house and who designed it and found this video, thank you for such a wonderful explanation. I am not an architect, so the breakdown of why it is so great was very educational. I would love to have a home like this one day, it is perfect in every way, I am in love.

    Great video, guys. I really love how you explained the design aspects of the house in a comprehensive but down-to-earth way. I've visited Heide a few times over the years but brought my infant daughter with me for the first time recently. Lockdown meant that the building was closed but she thoroughly enjoyed exploring the secret gardens and walkways outside. I wish I could go inside and see the current exhibition with the original furniture. Thanks so much for a really great video.

    Not that it was the intention of the architect to wow people...... it's just that the living space in our house is yet to be surpassed. Trust me on this....

    It would be amazing if you guys put together a mini DIY archimarathon for Melbourne, I was just there and found it difficult to figure out what good architecture I could go explore and not just the outside. a google search was not helpful it seems you really have to just know what there is already.
