Statement of Significance

The house was designed by architect Raymond Jones for himself and his wife Betty. It was the House of
the Year in 1955.

Physical Description

Random-rubble granite faced brick east wall, glazed timber framed walls to the remainder; iron roof with a
small lantern light roofed with asbestos slates. '"House of the Year' in 1955. The original plan reveals this
as one of the first houses in Perth to overtly treat internal and external spaces as parts of the same
continous universal space, in the Modern movement manner." Molyneux, Ian. Looking Around Perth no
387 p 70
"One of the earliest Western Australian Houses to illustrate the concept of the continuity of external and
internal spaces, hallmark of the Modern movement.... More pronounced development of continuous
spatial design is evident in the house of Raymond Jones (1956) at Haining Avenue, Cottesloe (Fig. 5.7)
where the influence of the modernists Ludwig Mies vender Rohe and Marcel Breuer is also evident." Ill

In 1962 a new bedroom and bathroom were added. In 1992 D'Arcy Ryan added an extra wing in what
he describes as sensitive harmony for period style and with taste. The Jones are apparently very happy
with the alterations.
