At home.by holly we adore modernist, mid-century design, and we love how heavily it is woven through the fabric of Canberra as it has developed. One of the most iconic displays of this architecture can be found through the tightly held Swinger Hill precinct.

Swinger Hill; an experimental prototype to test medium density design principles, was a demonstration project for private developers commissioned by NCDC, to inspire innovative design solutions for Canberra development, with those situated on The Verge being expertly designed by none other than Gary Willemsen.

Canberra-born Gary Willemsen was one of the most sought after designer-builders of the time, winning Housing Industry Association Awards for residential villas and townhouses

The Verge home incorporates Willemsen's signature design principals around large scale cedar framed glazing, efficient use of space, and architecturally interesting ceiling heights and textures. These elements have been meticulously maintained and restored by the current owner to gently transform the home in to a modern and practical space, while still honouring the character that makes it special.

Modern, appealing, and an excellent example of the Sydney regional style of architecture, the Swinger Hill homes form a consistent group, unified by the careful selection of materials, colours, detailing and landscaping. Continuity of these design elements are retained and remain as relevant today as they were in their inception.
