Melbourne Design Week: SUNSET COCKTAILS AT ROBIN BOYD’S WALSH STREET HOUSE

  • Robin Boyd Foundation 290 Walsh Street South Yarra, VIC, 3141 Australia (map)

Presented by the Robin Boyd Foundation in conjunction with Four Pillars Gin and Haus of Fraser

Robin Boyd’s iconic Walsh Street residence was one of Melbourne’s hot-ticket party houses in the 1960’s. Now you can experience this modernist masterpiece as the dusk light dances across this unique architectural backdrop. On this informal tour, our guides will sharing anecdotes of parties past, as our mixologists serve signature 60’s inspired cocktails.

Robin and Patricia Boyd’s reputation for hosting was greatly admired and appreciated by Melbourne’s young & burgeoning creative establishment in the 1960’s. Designed to complement their bohemian lifestyle, with its floating salon and private central courtyard, Walsh Street lent itself to sophisticated entertainment. And the Boyd children, not always seen and heard in their own glass-fronted rear pavilion, were often enthralled spectators.

The Robin Boyd Foundation, in conjunction with Four Pillars Gin and Haus of Fraser, have curated some signature cocktails (and mocktails) for this unique experience. Consider making a special night of it – stop in for a unique sunset cocktail experience, then head out, perhaps rediscovering your favourite Melbourne restaurant.
