Walsh Street Archive Exhibition Tour – Thu 4 Aug, 11am

Experience ‘Walsh Street’, the house Boyd designed for his own family in 1957, and his most well-known work. It 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.

Launch of the Walsh Street Archive – special exhibition

Over the past seven years, the Walsh Street Archive has been catalogued, researched and digitised by a team of Robin Boyd Foundation volunteers. In celebration of the archive’s launch online through Victorian Collections, the Foundation will welcome tour attendees to a curated exhibition of collection highlights.

Bring your smartphone to explore the collection via a self-guided QR code tour. You wil be provided with an exhibition floor plan upon arrival which will list all the specific items on display.
