Architecture

This is the last project of the firm Robinson Chen and dates from 1990. In 2007 I photographed the Hildebrand House in Somers, on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula, for Monument magazine as a part of their series on Classic Houses. I was awe struck by the project and its presence nearly 20 years after its construction. It is more than a classic house, and was the precursor to a new style of Australian 'beach house' architecture.
