Last Sunday Mary and I went on the Art Gallery House Tour. The "great wall" house on King George Terrace (#2) was on it and we were particularly intrigued to see it. It looked like a complete monstrosity when it was being built and now looks like a minor monstrosity. Well, there are fabulous views even though you do have to look through power lines for some of the view. It's on a scale that is more for the showroom than human habitation. Actually, many of the houses on the tour impressed us this way. We went home to our cosy houses and appreciated them.
I think our favourite was #7 because it was on a human scale, although spacious and elegant. We liked #4 too. I think the Art Gallery would do well to do something like the Hospice "Itty Bitty Garden Tour" which Elaine and I enjoyed so much. It was so interesting to see what people had done with small spaces.
I'm always fascinated by small spaces and enjoyed this website:
