Talking Houses with Virginia Kerridge:
House in Country NSW

Continuing the Talking Houses video series, Virginia Kerridge revisits House in Country NSW and reflects on how a series of new spaces “grafted” to a colonial-era stone cottage transformed the home and allowed it to better connect it to its place.

House in Country NSW was the winner of Australian House of the Year in 2011. For the Talking Houses: The decade’s best video series, the past winners of the prestigious award were each invited to create a video that shares the stories, ideas and experience of living in each of their award-winning homes.

The 2020 Houses Awards is presented by Architecture Media and supported by Cult, Allegion, Artedomus, Blum, Bosch, Brickworks, the Heritage Council of Victoria, Sussex, and Taubmans.

Winners will be announced in an online celebration on 31 July. More details will be available on the Houses Awards website.
