There is a story in every house, from the people who commissioned, designed and built them, to those who lived in them.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Since building began, 100 years of passion, energy and experiment have endowed Canberra with houses that reveal every face of modern design. This clever and beautiful selection has an architecture of its own. It tells the story of urban culture\u2014the story of a nation, and the life of a city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“It is true that a home is more than a house, but not all homes are houses.<\/em>“<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The houses here include a wide variety of residential types including apartments, hostels and colleges\u2014temporary homes as well as permanent. Some combine living and working; some reflect the development of architectural types, new technologies and principles of industrial organisation; some the development of specific urban precincts. Some here are known from newspaper front pages, like the Petrovs\u2019 house and The Lodge. Some are spectacular, some are ordinary. There are handsome houses and ugly houses. A number are masterpieces by Australia\u2019s best architects, including those who deserve a wider audience. They raise questions about priorities in architecture: should it be approached as an art, or a way of relating to the physical world, or of promoting particular social values? What, essentially, is a house and what does a house necessarily look like?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
