Robin Boyd, son of the painters Penleigh and Edith Boyd,
was born in Melbourne in 1919.

After his father's early death in a car accident, he moved with his mother and brother John to Malvern, close to Boyd relatives at Murrumbeena. With other relatives, he worked in Kingsley Henderson's office, and attended night classes in architecture at Melbourne Technical College (RMIT).
