Cities of Hope

For the past 20 years, Edmond and Corrigan's work has drawn an intense reaction and interest that only has an Australian counterpart in the reception of Walter Burley Griffin in the 1920s. Their work is a search for the means to express ideas about life in Australia through the medium of the built form. This study analyzes the buildings designed by Edmond and Corrigan within the context of Australian and international architecture. The main text is accompanied by a critique of Peter Corrigan's theatre designs, written by Michael Anderson.
