Modernism was a movement that swept the world and dramatically impacted Australia's built environment in the process.
This book explores 101 Adelaide modernist houses over 35 years from 1939 to 1974, many of them outstanding examples of the style. Featuring over 50 suburbs and over 70 architects - with nearly half their own home - designs comprise stunning bespoke houses but also blocks of flats as well as public and project housing, and competition entries.
With more than 300 floor plans and images, this richly illustrated book from an award-winning author is a must-read for all devotees of modernist architecture.
