Over a decade of great walks and talks.
In February 2009, heritage architect Roy Lumby led an informative
and entertaining walk around the historic locality of Rose
Bay. It's an area that features a range of architectural
styles, from Federation and Art Deco to 1950s marvel The
Chilterns pictured below. But this walk was just one
of many we've held over the years.
For an introduction to some of the areas we've walked
around, visit our heritage walks section.
Architecture of New South Wales.
For an introduction to the amazing variety of architectural
styles in NSW, visit our architecture pages.
It provides a photo gallery of residential, commercial, industrial
buildings and more.
Architectural attractions in other states.
You'll find great 20th century buildings in virtually every
Australian state and territory. For example, in Victoria, Tasmania and
the Australian Capital Territory.
