Hugh Buhrich’s low-profile house in Lilli Pilli, located just south of Sydney, was designed to function as a machine for the running of everyday family life.

澳大利亚并不总是对其最尖端的住宅建筑大声疾呼。但帕特里克·基恩(PatrickKeane)-一位年轻的澳大利亚建筑师-正将这一该节目跨越了50年来基恩所说的澳大利亚设计的实验暗流，从60年代到今天。但也许我们最喜欢的是斯坦·西蒙兹上世纪60年代的光滑混凝土，以及遍布在悉尼周围的抗重力的东西。更好的是，他们很少或没有媒体，从未拍照，很少出版。看来基恩到目前为止还只是冰山一角。当然还有更多的标志性建筑需要发掘。

Stan Symonds Kywong Road – Symonds used a vast palette of materials in this property in Eleanora Heights, north of Sydney. A virtually free-standing staircase looks like a series of ever-taller stools, and an elongated roof offers shade around the whole house.
