Walsh Street House
Boyd House II / Walsh Street House was designed by Robin Boyd for his family in 1957 and is his best known work. It is an exemplar of modernist Australian architecture.
Manning Clarke House
The former home of Australia’s best-known historian Professor Manning Clark and linguist and educator Dymphna Clark. Located at 11 Tasmania Circle, Canberra, the house was designed by Robin Boyd in 1952.
Both Manning and Robin were pre-eminent writers and thinkers in the fields of history and architecture, respectively, and shared similar perspectives. Both sought to explore a uniquely antipodean approach and narrative rather than imitate their international counterparts.
