Kew House is a residential house, located at 6 Hodgson Street in Kew, Victoria, Australia. The house was designed by Australian architect Sean Godsell in 1996–1997. It is designed in a rectangular shape (18m by 9m) that cantilevers 5.5 m over a slope from the street.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.seangodsell.com/kew-house )〕 Sean Godsell was born in Melbourne in 1960 and is a new generation of architect in the 1990s who insists on the traditions of Modernism and the crusades for the difference in family houses' design. He is the son of David Godsell who completed a number of notable homes in the bayside area of Melbourne in the 1960s and was a prominent local architect.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tenthandstark.com/2011/11/24/like-father-like-son-architects-david-sean-godsell/ )〕 He is influenced by Le Corbusier while his father was more of a Frank Lloyd Wright man. == Design approach == The nature of the Kew House is different from the houses in suburbs such as Kew, North Balwayn and Beaumaris, which display the post-war optimism of Melbourne architecture.〔 The Kew House reflects on the emergence of an Australian style using localized materials, construction and local tradition born not simply from the colonial history of Australia but also from Australia accepting its regional reality of being part of Asia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kew House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
