Great Australian Sandcastles

Trial Bay House (1x2)

Air date: Sep 18, 2011

The Australian Institute of Architects voted this house the best in the country by awarding it the 2010 Robin Boyd prize. It’s the first time a Tasmanian house has received such an honour, and surprisingly the design is effectively an alteration and addition not a new residence. Located an hour west of Hobart it’s well hidden. From an elevated position every window and door along its southern elevation commands a water view across to Bruny Island.
