Cities: Design research in sustainable urban development Project Description Melbourne is unique in having two UNESCO Creative City designations which are part of the 200-member UNESCO Creative Cities Network – Design (2017 onwards) and Literature (2008 onwards). The creative city is recognised as important to economic and social development in the United Nations Development Programme’s Creative Economy 2013 Special Edition: Widening Local Development Pathways. This report describes the need to encourage creativity and innovation as “urgent” to meet the challenges of urban development and sustainable, liveable cities. Bokova and Clark state, “the next frontier of knowledge generation rests on understanding interactions, specificities and policies at local levels, and how the creative economy might be practically promoted in communities, cities and regions” (p.10). The report also identifies cultural and creative industry mapping as an essential tool to inform planning and decision-making and to address the knowledge gap at the local level, and states, “a participatory methodology for knowledge production is vital” (p.157). This research could take the form of embedded research in Melbourne’s creative and cultural organisations, such as galleries, libraries and museums; generative research which facilitates the sustainment of creative practices through design; or historical thesis research on creative practices and communities in Melbourne. The project may embed measurement and evaluation of innovation and impact; explore models for conceptualising the value created for industry and society by design and creativity; and the impact of creativity on urban economics. The overarching research question is: What pathways might

  • The Case of Australian Architect Nell Mccredie
    $UFKLWHFWXUDO Volz, K. 2020. Reconsidering ‘Minor’ Archives: The Case of Australian Architect Nell McCredie. Architectural Histories, 8(1): 24, pp. 1–9. DOI: +LVWRULHV https://doi.org/10.5334/ah.408 RESEARCH ARTICLE Reconsidering ‘Minor’ Archives: The Case of Australian Architect Nell McCredie Kirsty Volz This paper discusses the recent discovery of the archive of the Australian interwar architect Nell McCredie. Finding this archive was crucial to the identification of McCredie as the author of several Georgian Revival houses in suburban Brisbane from the 1920s and 1930s. From an intersectional perspective, this text examines McCredie’s career as a practice outside the canon and presents her design for Uanda House (1928), and her work as a public service architect prior to expanding her career into ceramics. Like it has many other women, gender bias limited her career in terms of both longevity and agency. The aim of this text is to propose an understanding of McCredie’s archive as ‘minor’. The ‘minor’ c ategory for architectural history is a valuable way to reposition canonical ‘major’ histories, especially in relation to the 20th-century history of modern architecture. In doing so, the ‘major’ and the ‘minor’ are understood as connected rather than opposed ideas, following Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s under- standing of these concepts. Thus, rather than viewing the work of women and minorities as ‘absent’ from canonical histories of architecture, this text addresses the historiographical potential of their reconsid- eration as ‘minor’, which shifts the discussion from a dichotomous relationship to one of interdependence. McCredie’s archive is as an opportunity to develop new frameworks through which to analyse the archives of early women architects.

Sydney, perspective, 1956. 2 EDIToRIAl Two collections representing the work of well-known local architectural practices have recently been donated to the rmit Design Archives, adding significant depth to our existing holdings. 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).
