HOUSE - Physical Description 1
Unlike the off-form concrete Expressionist mode of his flats, Romberg's own house is of bagged brickwork with a tiled shallow pitched gabled roof, exposed rafter ends and sand stone 'Helmatstil' chimneys with his characteristic floating baffle, over the shaft. The house is elevated on its hillside siting. The cantilevered concrete curved, balconies, with wrought iron pipe handrails, have diagonal patterned wire balustrading and the downpipes are goosenecked up to the roof gutters. Later designs by Romberg at Heidelberg and Upwey extend this simple, skillion and gabled roof formula, also reflected in designs by Mockridge Stahle and Mitchell and Peter McIntyre in the 1950s.
