Publisher's Synopsis
From the 1950s to the 1970s, Australia experienced an economic boom and a broadening of horizons that heralded a new approach to domestic design. Young Australian architects and European immigrants turned for inspiration to the work of international names such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Walter Gropius, as well as to traditional Japanese principles. The result was a period when highly individual houses were designed. Here are showcased 15 significant houses from this creative era, each by a different architect and combining outstanding architectural principles with an interior that remains in keeping with the integrity of the house.
