Overnight Hobart (7 nights) Hobart, the Tasman Peninsula & Bruny Island: Architecture & Design – February 2022 May 2021 Page 2 Leaders Stephen Crafti An Honorary Membership of the Australian Institute of Architects, Stephen is a leading architecture & design writer of over 40 books & many articles including for 'The Age', 'Sydney Morning Herald' & 'Wallpaper' magazine (London), Stephen has pioneered ASA’s new special design tours to London, Japan, Belgium, Berlin, Hamburg, Finland & Milan. Stephen Crafti is a leading Architecture & Design Writer. With more than 40 books to his name and writing for Australia's leading newspapers and magazines, including the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Australian Financial Review, Stephen is highly regarded in his field. Whether it's writing about a contemporary home or a design luminary, he makes the subject both intriguing and highly accessible. He started writing on architecture and design in the early 1990s, after purchasing a modernist 1950s home. "I've always been drawn to design, whether it's a building, an interior, a beautifully crafted chair or fashion. I'm fascinated with the stories behind each creation. I never stop looking. It's a continual search for the best in design, whether in Australia or overseas". Stephen Crafti also produces and hosts 'Talking Design', a popular fortnightly RMIT podcast, which features interviews with experts and professionals from all areas of the design world. To listen, please visit: www.rmit.edu.au/news/podcasts/talking-design In 2021 he was awarded an Honorary Membership of the Australian Institute of Architects. "This award recognises your significant and substantial contribution to architecture through your work as one of Australia’s leading architecture and design writers, and as a perceptive and informed commentator bringing architecture to a wider Australian audience. Additionally, your carefully curated architectural tours offer the public a highly tangible experience of architecture".

This heritage hotel is located in the heart of Battery Point, a short 2-minute walk from Salamanca Place. Our program officially starts at 4.00pm. We commence with an orientation walk of Hobart’s waterfront including a tour of the interior of the Henry Jones Art Hotel, led by Robert Morris-Nunn AM. Robert, an adjunct professor at the University of Tasmania’s School of Architecture, is principal of one of Tasmania’s most awarded practices, Circa Morris-Nunn Chua Architects. In 2017 he was made a Member of the Order of Australia for his significant service to commercial architecture in Tasmania, to tertiary education and to professional institutes, and as a role model.

This evening we enjoy an introductory talk by Robert Morris-Nunn followed by a Welcome Dinner at the Old Wharf Restaurant. (Overnight Hobart) D Day 2: Monday 7 February, Hobart Georgian Homestead, Acton – Circa Morris-Nunn Chua Architects & landscape architecture studio, Playstreet School of Creative Arts The Maker with fashion designer, Leonie Struthers The Barn – Alex Nielsen and Liz Walsh architects Arthur Circus – Circa Morris-Nunn Chua Architects The Signalman’s Quarters, Battery Point – 1+2 Architecture Despard Gallery, Talk by Director Steven Joyce & exhibition on the Lockhart river painters in association with Fireworks Gallery Brisbane. Hobart is home to a swathe of heritage-protected Georgian and Victorian buildings. Its most significant colonial buildings include Parliament House and the Penitentiary Chapel – both designed by John Lee Archer, a civil engineer and colonial architect who worked in Tasmania from 1827 to 1838. The Penitentiary Chapel, whose tower was inspired by the famous English architect, Sir Christopher Wren, remains one of the finest examples of colonial Georgian architecture in Australia. Today Robert Morris-Nunn AM will accompany us to view a number of projects which involve the recycling of Hobart’s historic buildings. We begin with a visit to a stately two-storey Georgian homestead which was built in Acton in the mid 1820s. Here Robert will explain how materials, including hardwood timbers, sandstone and field stones, from a former heritage-listed (but condemned) outbuilding were carefully ‘recycled’ to create opposing wings to the rear of the house which included an open family dining/kitchen area on one side of a central courtyard, and two children’s bedrooms on the other. We also meet with Miriam Shevland and Carl Turk, directors of the architecture and urban design studio, Playstreet, which won three Landscape Architecture Awards in 2021 including an award for their work at Acton House. Returning to Hobart’s waterfront we make a brief visit to the School of Creative Arts on Hunter Street which is housed in the old Henry Jones IXL Jam Factory dated 1903. Next, we meet with fashion designer, Leonie Struthers, the creative force behind sustainable fashion brand, lj struthers, whose clothing has been handmade in Hobart since the label’s inception in 2005. Her store ‘The Maker’ is currently located in the Salamanca Arts Centre, however we plan to meet her at her new store which is due to open in Elizabeth Street later in 2021. Nearby is The Barn which is a clever renovation of an 1820s sandstone barn by architects Alex Nielsen and Liz Walsh who collaborated on the project as workbylizandalex.

The general slope is to the south especially of the eastern half, which corresponds to the drainage being effected by south flowing streams. The western boundary is represented by the West Coast Range which presents a steep face to the west.

  • JOURNAL Number Six
    THE JAMES CAIRD SOCIETY JOURNAL Number Six Antarctic Exploration Sir Ernest Shackleton MARCH 2012 1 Shackleton and a friend (Oliver Locker Lampson) in Cromer, c.1910. Image courtesy of Cromer Museum. 2 The James Caird Society Journal – Number Six March 2012 The Centennial season has arrived. Having celebrated Shackleton’s British Antarctic (Nimrod) Expedition, courtesy of the ‘Matrix Shackleton Centenary Expedition’, in 2008/9, we now turn our attention to the events of 1910/12. This was a period when 3 very extraordinary and ambitious men (Amundsen, Scott and Mawson) headed south, to a mixture of acclaim and tragedy. A little later (in 2014) we will be celebrating Sir Ernest’s ‘crowning glory’ –the Centenary of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic (Endurance) Expedition 1914/17. Shackleton failed in his main objective (to be the first to cross from one side of Antarctica to the other). He even failed to commence his land journey from the Weddell Sea coast to Ross Island. However, the rescue of his entire team from the ice and extreme cold (made possible by the remarkable voyage of the James Caird and the first crossing of South Georgia’s interior) was a remarkable feat and is the reason why most of us revere our polar hero and choose to be members of this Society. For all the alleged shenanigans between Scott and Shackleton, it would be a travesty if ‘Number Six’ failed to honour Captain Scott’s remarkable achievements - in particular, the important geographical and scientific work carried out on the Discovery and Terra Nova expeditions (1901-3 and 1910-12 respectively).
