中世纪现代设计以其锐利的几何形状而闻名，但引入曲线和圆形元素可以柔化外观，营造出温馨的氛围。1968年，弗兰克·甘比尼设计并建造了他对中世纪现代圆形房屋的诠释。他专注于流动性和动态感，创造了与弧形墙壁相得益彰的生活区域，使大面积窗户和滑动门能够引入光线，营造出开放感。这一设计鼓励人们在空间中移动，同时强调室内与室外的联系——这是中世纪设计的标志。如今在批量住房中缺失的弗兰克圆形房屋，是1960年代末期的原型，高效、创意细节丰富，并建造在金代利，当时是一个建筑热点。这座房屋位于离河仅几户人家的地方，部分被原始迈阿密石前边界墙遮挡，至今仍是创新设计的绝佳范例。房屋正面完全呈圆形，而后半部分呈菱形，与别致而奇特的屋顶线完美契合。

模仿亚历山大建筑公司在棕榈泉建造的房屋风格，这座房子真正独一无二。倾斜的屋顶线庇护着前庭院，主要的橙色涂漆入口门引领进入家中。一进入，4米高的倾斜天花板、板岩壁炉和迈阿密石立刻吸引眼球。宽敞、光线充足的室内和简洁的美学以最佳方式挑战您的期望。

生活区域的中心是一个由砖和板岩建造的圆形壁炉，由旋转木马般的柱梁天花板固定。这一壮观的开放式设计由落地玻璃框定，邀请自然光线和微风在温暖月份中进入。地板经过精心铺设，采用耐用的马赛克瓷砖。

圆形厨房已现代化，非常适合娱乐，促进家人和朋友的互动。化妆间、家庭浴室和洗衣房拥有五星级装修，而四间卧室舒适地容纳所有年龄段的居住者。

室外，石墙与倾斜板混凝土板、暴露骨料细节和落地玻璃交织，所有这些都由建筑迈阿密石补充。精心设计的铺路、花园特色、花盆和植物唤起1960年代的风格，与房屋的风格和谐统一。

房屋平衡了社交空间和私人休憩区。虽然娱乐是一个关键特点，但也有大型卧室、独立的室外庭院和后院供儿童或宠物享受。设计旨在让家人团聚，房屋的圆形正面与菱形背面完美地坐落在宽敞的640平方米地块上，配有肾形地下游泳池和双车库。

被这座焕新的中世纪现代经典所吸引，它旨在打破常规，并美丽地走向未来。

Frank’s Round House - Breaking the Mould

While mid-century modern design is often recognised for its sharp geometry, introducing curves and round forms can soften the look and create a sense of warmth. In 1968, Frank Gambini designed and built his version of a mid-century modern round house.

With a focus on flow and movement, Frank created living areas that complemented curved walls, allowing expansive windows and sliding doors to bring in light and create a sense of openness. This design encouraged movement through the space while emphasising the connection between indoors and outdoors—a hallmark of mid-century design.

Absent from today’s mass housing, Frank’s Round House was a late 1960s prototype, efficient, creatively detailed, and constructed in Jindalee, which at the time was an architectural hotspot. Positioned just a few homes from the river and partially hidden behind an original Miami stone front boundary wall, this home remains a wonderful example of innovative design. The front of the house is entirely round, while the back half is diamond-shaped, perfectly dovetailing with an inventive and quirky roofline.

Emulating the style of homes built by the Alexander Construction Company in Palm Springs, this home is truly one in a million. The angled roofline shelters the front courtyard, with the main, orange-painted entrance door leading into the home. Upon entry, the 4-metre raked ceilings, slate fireplace, and Miami stone immediately capture attention. The expansive, light-filled interiors and clean aesthetic challenge your expectations in the best possible way.

At the centre of the living areas is a round fireplace constructed from brick and slate, anchored by carousel-like post-and-beam ceilings. This spectacular open plan is framed by floor-to-ceiling glazing, inviting natural light and gentle breezes during the warmer months. The floors have been expertly laid, featuring durable mosaic tiles throughout.

The circular kitchen has been modernised and is perfect for entertaining, promoting interaction between family and friends. The powder room, family bathroom, and laundry boast five-star finishes, while the four bedrooms accommodate occupants of all ages comfortably.

Outside, stone walls intermingle with tilt-slab concrete panels, exposed aggregate detailing, and floor-to-ceiling glazing, all complemented by architectural Miami stone. Thoughtfully designed paving, garden features, pots, and plantings evoke the 1960s era, harmonising with the home’s style.

The house balances social spaces and private retreats. While entertaining is a key feature, there are also large bedrooms, separate outdoor courtyards, and a backyard for children or pets to enjoy. Designed to bring families together, the home’s round front joined with the diamond-shaped back sits perfectly on a generous 640sqm allotment, complete with a kidney-shaped inground swimming pool and double carport.

Be captivated by this renewed mid-century modern classic, designed to break the mould and live beautifully well into the future.
