Dream Bedroom


This is Burnett House in Darwin. Designed by Beni Burnett 1938 and survived the war and cyclone Tracey.  This is my favorite tropical design home.  He had a lot of influence on the building in Katherine.  I have spent many a peaceful Sunday afternoon in room such as this. My home in Katherine didn't have many walls and while it was freezing in the dry season when the lowest temperature I experienced was 1.5 degrees Celsius, it was amazing in the build up to and during the wet.

I recognised this house as soon as I saw that picture - I have taken many visitors there - I love the feel of it xo
