Would stainless steel ceiling fans be in keeping with MCM? I like the look more than white or timber. Thoughts? ... See MoreSee Less

  • We have a beautiful precinct here in Beaumaris - it was part of the original layout of Beaumaris in the 1950’s - the original community hall, library (with an ‘adaptive reuse’ renovation), the tennis club, U3A (previously senior citizen’s), the cenotaph and perhaps the most interesting of all - the Beaumaris Art Group Building... all surrounded by indigenous trees and open space. Let’s hope this original group of buildings are looked after and maintained into the future - we are so fortunate the precinct has survived as part of our unique Beaumaris community... #beaumarismodern #beaumaris @savebagstudio #baysidecitycouncil
  • We have a horrible sense of deja vu as one of our favorite homes, The Abrahams House, designed by Arthur Russell at 372 Beach Rd is once more at risk of demolition. The dreaded yellow sign has gone up and the developer wants to put two townhouses in its place. The community successfully stopped a proposed development back then. And now we ask you to help stop it again. You only have until Monday to object here: https://www.bayside.vic.gov.au/object-to-planning-permit The application number is 5/2019/484/1 Reasons to object include the proposed removal of two VPO protected trees (coastal banksias), one being a council street tree! And the proposed development does not comply with neighborhood character regulations whereas the current building clearly does. Nor do the proposed plans comply with site setback regulations. Thanks for your support. #beaumarismodern #preservation #savethishouse #372beachroad #mcm #significant #baysidecitycouncil @heritagecouncilvic @institute_architects_aus @architecture_vic @heritage_places_vic
  • Participants in Beaumaris Open 2019 and our @canberra_modern friends were invited to a private viewing of @ispyid exhibition of 100 objects at the Boyd house... thanks to CEO Joy Villialino. Have a peek at their response to the exhibition! #beaumarismodern #bmopen #rb100 #robinboydfoundation #ianwongcollection #australiandesign @boydfoundation
  • All are welcome to our 2019 Beaumaris Modern Annual General Meeting - this Wednesday 30th October at 7pm at Beaumaris Bowls Club. We are fortunate to have the distinguished Professor Alan Pert, Director of Melbourne School of Design, to present. Professor Pert has been researching the life and work of emigre architect Ernest Fooks and his home in Caulfield (pictured). (State library of Victoria collection - Wolfgang Sievers). #beaumarismodern #beaumarismodernagm #alanpert #ernestfooks #ernestfookshouse
  • This beautiful home at 14 Cromer Road Beaumaris was part of our 'Beaumaris Open' on Sunday. The owners are now selling after many years of renovating and landscaping. The original house was designed by architect Kevin Knight in 1953 and the recent renovation designed by architect Matt Green. The house has been sensitively renovated and is a fine example of why its often better to renovate and restore a MCM house than build new - this house has loads of character and had many visitors on Sunday wishing it was their home!
