Maisy Stapleton and Ian Stapleton,
This book takes us on a journey through Australian architectural
history, from the bark and split-slab cottages of the early colonial
period to the sleek corrugated-steel pavilions of the twenty-first
century. In between are country homesteads, city terraces, Federation
villas, Californian bungalows and the austere fibro-clad cottages of the
1940s and 1950s. Sixty-three carefully-detailed drawings illustrate the
characteristics of every style. The text and drawings combine authority
and authenticity with sharp social comment and a wry sense of humour.

An Architectural and Interior Design Source Book
by Hilary Hockman.
Intended for anyone who wants to restore original features in an
Edwardian house, or simply to create the light gentility of that period
in a modern home, this book looks at each room in turn, as well as the
exterior and garden, in terms of how it was then and how antique and
modern furniture, funishings and fittings can be used to recreate the
setting. The book contains source material from contemporary catalogues,
together with photographs of houses and finished rooms in Britain,
Europe, North America and Australia. Major trends of the Edwardian
period - including the Arts and Crafts Movement, Art Nouveau and the
Queen Anne Revival - are all featured, with the work of architects such
as Lutyens and Rennie Mackintosh, gardeners such as Gertrude Jekyll, and
design houses such as Liberty and Heals.

Historic Houses Trust of New South Wales
One of Australia's most eccentric and complex architects, Hunt radically
challenged the conservative architectural establishment of late 19th
century Australia. With contemporary and historical photographs and
plans, this scholarly book will confirm Hunt's place in history as an
architect of enduring significance and originality.
**This book**,
was published to accompany an exhibition at the Museum of Sydney on the
site of first Government House celebrating the life and work of
architect John Horbury Hunt.
It is the most comprehensive publication on the architect in the last 30
years and confirms Hunt's place in history as an architect of enduring
significance and originality. He arrived in Sydney in 1863 and for the
next 40 years was renowned for the distinctive and radical architecture
he introduced to the fledgling city and rural New South Wales.

by Edquist, Harriet
Between 1890 and 1930, a number of Australian architects and garden
designers were heavily influenced by British and American Arts and
Crafts movements. They brought to Australia new design forms that
radically simplified architecture, garden layouts and suburban planning
and, in doing so, foreshadowed the development of modernist design.
Although well documented in both Britain and America, the influence of
the Arts and Crafts movement in Australia has long been lost between the
far better known Gothic and Classical revivals and the modernist
movement and obscured by the chronological construction of 'federation'
architecture
Here, architectural historian Harriet Edquist explores the work of four
of Australia's most radical and innovative Arts and Crafts architects,
Walter Butler, Harold Desbrowe-Annear, Walter Liberty Vernon and Robin
Dods and situates them in the historical context of the first decades of
the twentieth century. The accompanying photographs and plans bring to
life the simple lines of their design and illustrate why it is so
deserving of further recognition.

Author Girouard, Mark, 1931-
The
author charts the origins and progress of the style, known inaccurately
as "Queen Anne" from its birth in the 1860's to its fall from grace in
the 1890's. He also throws light on an important segment of English life
in the last decades of the 19th century.
An
interesting survey of Victorian interpretation, elaboration and
variation on "Queen Anne" style, which gained enormous currency in
architecture, children's book illustration (Greenaway and her
emulators), and other decorative arts.

Australia's Own Style, by H Fraser and R Joyce,
Federation style housing is a unique and fascinating period of
Australia's architectural history. Although the Federation house
borrowed styles from many countries and eras, from English Queen Anne to
Art Nouveau, it had a distinctive nationalistic flavour - God Save the
Queen and Advance Australia Fair at the same time. This book is more
than a mere series of pictures and descriptions. It gives advice to
owners and would-be owners of Federation houses on how to restore them
to their original glory, tips on specialised maintenance, and the names
of experts who have the skills that may be needed.

Federation Architecture in Australia 1890-1915,
by Trevor Howells and Michael Nicholson,
Federation architecture is often proudly referred to as our 'national
style'. As Australia moved towards Federation and formal separation from
the 'Mother Country', local architects looked with new eyes at the
landscape around them. Native flora and fauna became popular decorative
motifs in domestic architecture and wide verandahs were introduced to
cool houses in the Australian heat
