Experience Walsh Street, the house Robin Boyd designed for his own family in 1957, and his most well-known work. The building has been extensively published both nationally and internationally as an exemplar of modernist Australian architecture and a house that continues to influence architectural thinking. It is now the home of the Robin Boyd Foundation.

Boyd is arguably the most influential architect there has been in Australia. But he was also a renowned author, critic and public educator in the 1950s and '60s, a leader in Melbourne's Modern Architecture movement, and outspoken on the 'Australian Identity'.

The tour includes a 45-minute presentation about Robin Boyd and his lasting influence, along with an insight into the design of the Walsh Street house. Guests are then free to explore the house within the 1.5-hour session.
