The houses that resulted from these unique collaborations rejected previous architectural styles and wholeheartedly embraced modernist ideologies and aesthetics. The story of how these progressive clients contributed to the innovative design of their houses brings fresh insights to mid-twentieth-century Australian domestic architecture and to Canberra’s rich cultural history.URIArchitecture, ModernArchitectureAustraliaCanberra (A.C.T.)ScientistsHomes and hauntsAustraliaCanberra (A.C.T.)Architecturefast(OCoLC)fst00813346Architecture, Modernfast(OCoLC)fst00813842Buildingsfast(OCoLC)fst00840962Canberra (A.C.T.)Buildings, structures, etcAustralian Capital TerritoryCanberrafastaustraliamodern architecturehistoryarchitecturedomestic architecturebuildingscanberraMelbourneArchitecture, Modern.ArchitectureScientistsHomes and hauntsArchitecture.Architecture, Modern.Buildings.724Cameron Milton801707WaSeSSWaSeSSUkMaJRU9910141781303321Experiments in modern living1970131UNINA
