Summary: Simply Outstanding!
Comment: This handsome production is a collaboration between two architecture enthusiasts who have studied architecture & happened to be good in photography too! It contains 390 striking colour illustrations. For those that were accustomed to Crocodile Dundee in the 80s, Australia has moved forward with time. Sydney Olympics passed shown to the world that Australia is simply not diverse but cosmopolitan as well. It's no longer appropriate to generalise Australia as an outback country but a country that is no different from any industrial countries in Europe & the States. In terms of architecture, Australian architecture is on par if not better than the offerings from Europe & the States as well. The book said it correctly that as the world is moving faster, & that the resources is getting scarcer, quality of life is akin to hen's teeth. It's only logical for people to move within CBDs to both work & play. Australia is not simply filled with architecture offerings by Glen Murcutt & Peter Stutchbury. There are quality offerings by DCM (Denton Corker Marshall), Lippman Associates, Fender Katsalidis, Burley Katon Halliday & the list continues. This book is divided appropriately into apartments, townhouses, conversions & urban villas. The rest of the contents are index of architects & designers, index of locatioins, & acknowledgments. An absolute gem to revere at those wonderful buildings but also a book to get new ideas. This is also a coffee table book that I always go back to again & again. Highly recommended.
