If we were to name one architectural movement that Australians have embraced more than any other, it would have to be mid-century Modernism. During the building boom that followed World War II in the 1950s and 1960s, thousands of Modernist-style homes were constructed across the nation.
Still popular today, these homes commonly feature large expanses of glass to capture light, cross ventilation, strong connection to the outdoors, open-plan, built-in joinery, separation of communal and private rooms, limited materials – often brick, timber, metal, glass, tiles and patterned laminate.
