Climar, Campbell Town

If you take you car across from Port Melbourne to Tassie on the Spirit with the plan to make your way to Hobart via Launceston along the Midland Highway you will almost certainly see Climar, this fantastic streamline house in Campbell Town.

[A big thank you to Thomas at Art Deco & Modernism Tasmania for correcting my Tasmanian geographic faux pas (see comments below)].

Climar has musical notes on the low fence and a bridge makes up part of the path to the front door. Two sets of steps lead to the verandah/porch and the curving form of the house itself.

I find the random variety of bricks use to build the house very interesting. I wonder if they were recycled from demolished buildings?

And even through a few panes have been replaced, the scene on the etched glass windows depicting a yacht sailing on a bay or lake with eucalypus trees on the shore and a trio of swans paddling in the shallows (bottom left).
