Not every home needs to be about a spectacular or unique façade that steals the spotlight, turns heads and makes a big impact right off the bat. In fact, a modest and unassuming façade that blends with other homes in the neighborhood offers advantages of its own. Offering just that, but with a hint of originality and contemporary gray panache is the House in House in Melbourne designed by Steffen Welsch Architects. Inspired by Austrian architect Hermann Czech?s philosophy that sees ?Architecture as background?, rather than an entity that stands out visually, the new family home is all about understated elegance.Gray tiles and wood give the house a unique exteriorOn the inside, it is white along with light wooden tones that shape the living area along with the kitchen and dining room that flow into the central courtyard. One the other side of the lovely courtyard sits the bedroom that is connected with the living area through a stone pathway. The presence of the central courtyard adds to the cheerful and light-filled ambiance of the interior with pendants in bright orange making their snazzy presence felt.RELATED: Pink House: Stained Cedar Exterior Conceals a Clean Modern InteriorModest street facade of the House in HouseDining area with wooden flooring to demarcate it from the living space and kitchenLarge and open kitchen design with wooden shelves and corian countertopsLong hallway decorated with framed artworkRock pathway leads to the garden outsideStone pathway and lo...
