  • WOMEN and MODERNITY in INTERIOR DESIGN: a LEGACY of DESIGN in SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA from the 1920S to the 1960S
    WOMEN AND MODERNITY IN INTERIOR DESIGN: A LEGACY OF DESIGN IN SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA FROM THE 1920s TO THE 1960s Carol A. Morrow A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA © Carol A. Morrow 2005 ABSTRACT This thesis argues that women were seminal to the development of interior design as a discipline and profession in Sydney, Australia. Covering the period from the 1920s to the 1960s, this study identifies Thea Proctor, Nora McDougall, Margaret Lord, Phyllis Shillito and Mary White as foundational leaders who progressively advanced interior design in Sydney through individual and collective understandings of design. Focussing on their contributions to this development, this study explains complex interrelationships between women and modernity in interior design. This emergence of the discipline and profession in Sydney situates the initiatives of these five women at a transitional phase of the field’s global development when ‘interior decoration’ is challenged by modern attitudes and artistic theories of ‘design’. Working as individuals, Proctor and her successors advance the profession—previously characterised as a ‘natural’ pursuit for women of ‘taste’ and ‘style’—by their artistic, rational and practical approaches to interior design. At a time when no distinct discipline exists in Sydney, the women offer instruction and forge new directions by reformulating previous overseas traditions: incorporating a wide-range of aesthetic and theoretical conceptions of design, demonstrating common and different approaches to practice, and integrating changes in requisite knowledge and skills in response to their times.

    3868 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday 15 October 2003 ______ Mr Speaker (The Hon. John Joseph Aquilina) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Speaker offered the Prayer. GAMING MACHINES AMENDMENT (MISCELLANEOUS) BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 19 September. Mr GEORGE SOURIS (Upper Hunter) [10.00 a.m.]: I state at the outset that the Opposition will not oppose the Gaming Machines Amendment (Miscellaneous) Bill. The bill proposes a large number of important amendments which are intended to overcome anomalies in the existing Act and makes some adjustments which are essentially agreed among the industry, the Government and the Opposition as necessary for the better management of the Act. The bill provides for revised arrangements for forfeiture and transfer of gaming machines, as that applies to large clubs particularly, and also brings large clubs into line with the rest of the industry. The bill also provides a new and welcome amendment to overcome an anomaly that was exposed by the club at Taree and the application of the new 50 kilometres limit within which a club is permitted to conduct only a class one social impact assessment. The other provisions of the bill relate to relatively minor though important issues. I do not propose to discuss each of those 16 items because the Minister gave an explanation in his second reading speech and I have had the benefit of briefings from the director-general of the department and members of the Minister's personal staff. I express my thanks for the briefings I have received. In many respects those briefings have assisted me to understand a large number of small amendments that would otherwise have taken considerable time to discuss.
