70/80/90 Iconic Australian Houses by Karen McCartney.

Superbly photographed, this follow-up to the design classic 50/60/70 Iconic Australian Houses captures an architectural respect for Australia’s unique, and often hostile, landscape. Author Karen McCartney has compiled a magnificent selection of houses that form a significant part of Australian architectural history, from the 1970s, 80s and 90s.

From the Sydney Opera House to Richard Leplastrier’s private, sensitive Palm House, this collection of fourteen projects includes their interior decoration and a discussion of designers and manufacturers of iconic furniture, fittings and fabrics. Other featured architects include Glenn Murcutt, John Wardle, Ken Woolley, Wood Marsh and Durbach Block.
