Series 2, Ep 15 - Graffiti House
Sunday 25 August 7:30pm
It would usually be a TV disaster: on the day before filming began,
spray-paint vandals tagged a home being profiled by Dream Build in
Fitzroy.
But this was The Graffiti House so the damage was quickly painted
over by a professional street artist whose graffiti stretches from
one end of this unique home to the other.
Fitzroy is known for its extraordinary street art; prestigious
architect John Wardle is not. Owners Pearly & Trevor appreciated the
area's artwork and vibrant street culture and wanted to
incorporate it in the house design, so John Wardle embraced the
chance to include graffiti in this inner-city Melbourne home.
It was a remarkable chance encounter which paved the way to take
this further. Artist Paul Round was caught by the owners painting
graffiti on their wall before the main construction work began.
Instead of painting over his graffiti, John, Pearly and Trevor
commissioned Paul to undertake additional painting at the home,
adding to the actual design elements of the house.
In the finished design, the graffiti flows inside the home, is on
the walls of the covered court yard and in some respects IS the
walls with the front of the house having raised bricks representing
the photographic pixels of an enlarged picture of the graffiti
itself.
The graffiti is, however, only one part of this beautifully
conceived, understated design. The home consists of two well
designed pavilions facing each other across the courtyard; an oasis
in busy Fitzroy.

Episode 14 has sunk without a trace due to epic fail scheduling by
the ABC.
