Congratulations to Searle x Waldron Architecture, winner of both the Dulux Grand Prix Australia award and the Commercial Exterior award for the University of Melbourne Southbank End of Trip.
Suzannah Waldron collaborated on the VCA precinct to enable a corridor from Sturt St to the campus. Her ingenious idea of creating a new facade for the old PMG garage has produced a brilliant and practical ‘end of trip’ facility for bike riders to delight all the senses, and she thoroughly deserves both the awards.

In honour of World Architecture Day some new images of the Sydney Opera House under construction. These are scans from the original roll of film I have only recently rediscovered in my archive during lockdown. Time has altered my original evaluation of them.
In the late 60's I was in Sydney on an archi student trip to meet Harry Seidler. One of Utzon's staff offered me a tour of the site and these are some of my earliest architectural shots.
As pure architecture the NSW Government hardly needed to complete the Opera House. People would have paid to explore it as a ruin, which is how all great architecture ends up anyway!

Further to my last post of Edmund and Corrigan’s Elwood House bathroom here is another selection, in chronological order, reflecting a few highlights from Corrigan’s career. Peter was one of my first clients and remained loyal to me until the day he died. It’s interesting looking back as his career parallels mine. He was responsible and encouraging of the new expressionist style of photography that we became known for.
1. 1976. Freedom Club child-care centre, Keysborough. I thought that freedom would be flying like Peter Pan so I double exposed my daughter Polly flying over the building.
2. 1978. Church of the Resurrection, Keysborough. My brief was to express the theatricality of the Catholic mass and to me the vestments are theatrical so I decided to photograph the priest outside the church. He was pre-exposed on 4x5 transparency then covered in a black garbage bag while my assistant lit the church with multiple flashes on the same sheet of film.
3. 1980 One of Melbourne’s first commissioned Art Trams. Apparently the Japanese embassy protested over Corrigan's 1978 design, which included the ‘Rising Sun’ naval ensign and, rather enigmatically, the slogans ‘Mother Knows’ and ‘Sayonara Koala’. The tram was whisked back to the workshop and the offending flags painted over.
4. 1983. Kay Street Housing, Carlton. These shots were to be published in Domus magazine so I thought I’d perpetuate the myth that Kangaroos roamed the Australian suburbs.
5. 1986 Charman house, a small suburban addition for a musician couple with an outback landscape of anthills by Jim Sinatra.
6. 1990 Athan House, Monbulk, was a long curving house with a complex domestic arrangement that Peter never fully understood.
7. 1994 Building 8, RMIT
8. 1995 Ringwood Library
9. 2003 Victorian College of the Arts, Melbourne
10. 2004 Newman College Library
The large public buildings were transforming works that paved the way for the next generation of Melbourne designers to be even bolder with their architecture.

Maggie Edmond and Peter Corrigan of Edmund Corrigan
Architects both trained in European modernism in the 60”s but were seduced by Australian larrikinism. They found inspiration in suburbia, where Venturi and Scott Brown had found it in the drive thru city of Las Vegas.
Their work contains a profoundly deep knowledge of precedent and reference whilst popping the eyeballs with pattern and colour. Their teaching practice had a massive impact on the architecture of Melbourne for the next fifty years.
Equally famous for his stage sets, Peter could be provocative, inventive and entertaining simultaneously while Maggie practiced sanity and professionalism.
Edmund Corrigan Architects won the Australian Institute of Architecture Gold Medal in 2003.
Corrigan’s brief in 1995 for these bathroom shots was to just take snapshots; he hated professional looking pics. I wanted to activate the bathroom anyway so I had my assistant climb over the room using a wide angle lens to show all the features and was shooting straight to slide film for the AIA Vic Awards. Straight into the Kodak Carousel! The irreverence of these images gained us both considerable notoriety.
My assistant was Sandy Nicholson, now a successful photographer in his own right in Toronto.

Congratulations to Naomi Milgrom on the release of MPavilion’s new book, MPavilion: Encounters with Design and Architecture.
A big thank you to Naomi and NMF for commissioning me to photograph MPavilion each year. Only two shots of the Carme Pinós pavilion made the cut for the book in the end but here is a full set of all six pavilions plus a portrait of Naomi with Bijoy Jain and a Glenn Murcutt crowd portrait (that also made the book in a cropped form).

My archive of Denton Corker Marshall work has many unpublished and even unseen images. Here are a few concentrating on Melbourne CBD, plus the first building DCM designed in the late 70’s , the Port Phillip Sea Pilots HQ in Queenscliff which coincided with the City Square urban design project. There are now 384 project folders in my DCM archive.
I first met the DCM boys over 50 years ago when life was free and we all showed nothing but promise, when John said it was better to come second in a competition and Barry said everything should be a little bit off angle. My enduring memory is the day Denton made me reshoot an interior at No. 1 Collins St because “DCM doesn’t do pot plants”. Now Gollings doesn't either!
Melbourne is all the richer for this remarkable diversity of projects and I try to do them justice.

Julian Featherston’s addition to his parents’ iconic Robin Boyd 1967 Featherston House, keeps the floating platform convention while ingeniously hiding bathrooms and entertainment units within an open space.
Designed for his mother Mary, the intent was to take all she loved about living and learning in the adventurous space of the Boyd house and translate it into a new ultra-minimal smaller unit, with a new set of experimental elements.
A most respectful addition to a masterpiece.

Great to see JCB’s 2014 Hiding House featured by estliving.com. Many thanks for the photo credit and tag.
JCB are infallibly inventive yet always practical and this house works perfectly for a growing family. It has no gratuitous moments but radiates calm and timelessness.
From @est_living:
HOME TOUR Hiding House
.
Jackson Clements Burrows Architects designed this home in Melbourne's Elsternwick with interlocking spaces and gardens, on what was formerly a rear tennis court.
.
Off-white concrete bricks, concrete floors, white-stained cladding and natural timber combine to create a warm and robust home that is equally open and private.

Repost from Tim Ross with thanks, plus a few more shots.
Andrew Metcalf’s 1991 Arnold House in Clontarf, Sydney.
I shot this striking piece of architecture for Vogue Living the same year. The refreshing splash of colour was on the private facade while the street face showed an elegant rectilinear composition referencing Corbusier and Bauhaus. Andrew Metcalf taught architecture in the Melbourne tradition of theory based design and was very comfortable exploring his own erudition!
In 2011 Andrew was appointed BVN Architecture’s critic-in-residence to spur intellectual engagement and the building of studio culture within BVN. Dr Andrew Metcalf is currently with the University of Canberra’s Department of Architecture lecturing in Design & Built Environment.
