Luigi Rosselli’s Mount Minderoo House highlights the appeal of a New South Wales mountaintop
Born and raised in Milan in the 1960s and 70s, architect Luigi Rosselli spent the early years of his career studying in Switzerland and New York City. He opened his eponymous architectural firm in Sydney in 1984, bringing along a passion for midcentury Italian design informed by his upbringing. The firm’s first commission, the design of Canberra’s Parliament House, opened the floodgates to an influx of clients. At the turn of 2007 (W*95), Wallpaper* took to the New South Wales Southern Highlands to visit his design for a family home outside Mittagong inspired by the artist Andy Goldsworthy.
