Postmodern design isn't usually associated with comfort. Most people picture a gallery, or a museum — not somewhere you'd want to raise a family. That was the core challenge behind the film for Drum House. Designed by Sir Terry Farrell — one of only a handful of houses he's ever built — the property is a genuine postmodern statement: bold, funky, nearly 7,000 sq. ft., laid out flat and open across two floors, with two gardens and space built for entertaining. But the goal was never to sell it as an architectural showpiece. It had to be grounded in how people actually live in it.
A post modern master piece for exquisite living
The house works two ways at once. It's built for hosting — big ceilings, sprawling outdoor space, the kind of place that can carry a party every night of the week. It's also, genuinely, a family home, close to some of the best schools in the area, with the kind of everyday spaces that make it livable rather than just admirable. Music did as much work as the visuals here. The track needed the same rhythm and character as Farrell's design, while staying warm enough to hold the family side of the story. Once that balance landed, the film built itself around it. Produced in collaboration with Charlie Willis and Sacha Steyn at The London Broker.
