Crossman House 3 Hermes No: 206265 Statement of recommendation from the Executive Director, Heritage Victoria to the Heritage Council of Victoria Description The following is a description of the Crossman House at the time of the site inspection by Heritage Victoria in December 2020. The Crossman House is a double-storey 1970s brick residence in the Melbourne suburb of Glen Iris. The house is oriented to the east to face Finch Street. On the street side, the property is bounded by a high, curved brick wall. Entry to the property is via either a timber pedestrian gate or adjacent driveway gates. The front garden comprises a gravel driveway, mature eucalypts and other native shrubs. The house’s front elevation is dominated by the sharply angled roof and an almost full height window wall to the east and north. The main entry to the house is via a stepped, paved terrace beneath a timber sunshade. Internally, the double-height entry lobby contains a stairwell and garden. The ground floor contains an open plan living area with timber cabinetry along the north internal wall. A void above enables natural light to enter. The remainder of the ground floor contains a breakfast nook, kitchen, laundry and study. In most areas, the walls and ceilings are lined with pale timber boards. The upper level is accessed via a ramped stairway that follows the line of the window wall. The upper level comprises two bedrooms, bathroom and small additional study. The master bedroom is lit by north-facing windows that open on to the void that also lights the living area. A timber deck wraps around the rear of the house and can be accessed from both bedrooms and the bathroom. A spiral staircase can be used to access the rear garden which contains a pool and small combined studio and cellar. 2020, view of house from Finch Street. 2020, carport and front garden.

The ‘Crossman flats’ were critically recognised for their inventive design and received the RAIA Housing Award in 1974.2 The Crossmans purchased the land at 151 Finch Street in what was then known as Malvern in 1976. They again commissioned Borland, this time to design their family home. They moved into the house in 1978 and resided there until 1982. Kevin Borland Kevin Borland is one of the best represented twentieth-century architects in the Victorian Heritage Register. He was born in 1926 in West Melbourne.3 In the early 1940s he studied technical drawing and construction at the Melbourne Technical College and in 1944 commenced his study of architecture at the University of Melbourne. He studied alongside Peter McIntyre and under the tutelage of Robin Boyd, Roy Grounds and Frederick Romberg. Borland completed his degree in 1950 after a break in his study during which he served in the Royal Australian Naval Reserve. He designed his first residence, the highly inventive and distinctive Rice House (VHR H0123), in 1951. At the age of 26, just two years after graduating, he was part of the team to win a national competition for the design of the Olympic Swimming Stadium (VHR H1977). Other residential commissions followed throughout the 1950s and several of his homes from this era survive, including the Mollar House in Beaumaris. These early works of Borland’s are characterised by their rational simplicity and reflect the international architectural Modernism of architects such as Harry Seidler. Borland began teaching at RMIT in 1955 and went into partnership with Geoff Trewenack in the same year. His work on Preshil Junior School (VHR H0072) began in 1962 and continued into the next decade. Preshil would become one of his most iconic works, and encapsulated his progressive, participatory approach to design and skill in working with timber to produce striking yet hospitable buildings.4 Alongside Daryl Jackson, Borland designed the Harold Holt Memorial Swimming Centre (VHR H0069) in 1968. The boldly expressive building is widely considered one of the most notable examples of Brutalist architecture in Victoria.5 Drawing on some of the physical characteristics of his Preshil buildings, in 1970 Borland designed the Paton House – one of his most highly regarded and influential houses.6 The Paton House represented the emergence of the dynamic and rugged timber residential design that Borland became known for and was awarded an RAIA merit award in 1972.7 In the same year Borland received an RAIA medal for his work on the Preshil buildings. A series of notable house designs in this style followed, including the Crossman Flats which also received critical recognition. In 1975, Borland led the Architects Group in the design of the Former Clyde Cameron College (VHR H2192), another of the most notable Brutalist buildings in Victoria.8 Borland was a highly regarded educator and taught at all three architectural schools in Melbourne across several decades.

The Anatol Kagan Collection includes material relating to the Russian-born émigré’s Melbourne practice in the 1940s and early 1950s, and his subsequent Sydney practice from the 1960s. His post-war domestic architecture can be directly compared with that of other émigré architects whose work is represented in the Archives, including Frederick Romberg (rda Newsletter #1 2008), Ernest Fooks (some of whose drawings and books were donated to rmit a number of years ago by Noemi Fooks) and Frederick Sterne (rda Newsletter #1 2008).

NAME ORIGIN SIGNIFICANCE Ancher Street Sydney Edward Architect Cambrian Ancher Sydney Ancher gained his Diploma of Architecture (1904 – 1979) from the Sydney Technical College c.1929. He was awarded the Australian Medallion and in 1930 left for Europe, the recipient of the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarship. Experience in the office of Joseph Emberton in London guided his early development as a Modernist. Ancher returned to Australia in 1936 convinced it was possible to evolve an Australian vernacular architecture based on the International Style he had seen in Europe championed by Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Gropius. After a second European tour (c. 1938-39) and a period of military service (1940- 44), Ancher began his private practice which focused on designing distinctive Modernist houses in the suburbs of Sydney.
