Salbinda - The Restoration

0/5 ( ratings)

This book tells the story of Salbinda, the first house built by renowned Australian architect Richard Leplastrier in 1963, and lovingly restored by Richard, the new owner Anni Rowland-Campbell and their team of expert craftsmen and professionals including Jeffrey Broadfield, Peter Cumming, Andrea Wilson & Craig Burton.

The timber treehouse, located in bushland in Church Point Sydney, is a stunning reflection of Richard's sensitivity with the immediate natural environment. The structure features many of Richard's signature design elements including minimal, intentional, multi-use spaces and a considered use of local resources and materials.

The property and building survived decades of attempts by multiple developers to knock it down and split the block, before eventually landing in the hands of Anni Rowland-Campbell, who recognised the uniqueness of the building, and sought to restore it in recognition of it's place in Australian architecture history.

The story of Salbinda is told by the members of the restoration project team verbatim through interviews with Bel Campbell, with guiding drawings by Bec Evans & Andrea Wilson, and photography by team members, Leigh Woolley and Bel Campbell.

This book was edited and designed by Bel Campbell.
