Bruce
Rickard was one of the most significant Australian architects of the twentieth
century. A key member of the Sydney School, his practice spanned 60 years and
he produced some of the most notable and recognisable houses of the period.
In Bruce Rickard: A life in architecture, architects,
writers, academics and family members,
including Karen McCartney and Anna Fienberg (who have both lived in Rickard
houses), Babette Hayes, Philip Drew and Richard Goodwin, share their unique
insights into Rickard’s practice.
Featuring never-before-published
photographs by Max Dupain and Bruce Rickard’s hand-drawn plans, this stunningly
produced book celebrates the
pared-back beauty and ingenuity of Rickard’s buildings.
