Each Walsh Street Guided Tour begins with a talk packed with information about Robin Boyd – from his years as an architecture student to working with Gromboyd, his influences and travels to critical works and his lasting legacy. You will hear about the inspiration and design of this iconic modernist residence designed for Boyd's family in 1957, followed by an opportunity to explore Walsh Street and take photographs.⁠
