  • House at 4 Cobby Street, Campbell
    Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture RSTCA No: R103 Name of Place: House at 4 Cobby Street Campbell Address/Location: 4 Cobby Street, CAMPBELL ACT Block 5 Section 40 of Listing Status: Other Heritage Listings: Date of Listing: Level of Significance: Citation Revision No: Category: Citation Revision Date: Style: Date of Design: Designer: Construction Period: Client/Owner/Lessee: Date of Additions: Builder: Statement of Significance The residence at 4 Cobby Street, Campbell, is an example of significant architecture and an educational resource. The house is a good example of the Post-War International Style. The design incorporated some of the principal design features which are peculiar to the style including cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass. The residence also displays elements of the Post-War Melbourne Regional Style including widely projecting eaves and long unbroken roof line. The architecture of this building may contribute to the education of designers in their understanding of post-war architectural styles. Sir Otto Frankel was recognised internationally as Australia's pre-eminent Geneticist and was a member of the executive of the CSIRO. A significant part of his work after his retirement, which was considered to be his most productive time, was undertaken in the residence. The design of this as his own residence highlights the significance of this house for its association with him. Description The three bedroom residence was designed by Roy Grounds, with Theo Bischoff as the project architect, in 1969-70 for Sir Otto and Lady Frankel and construction was completed in 1970-71 1. The building is a late example of a combination of two styles: the Post-War Melbourne Regional Style (1940-60) with its widely projecting eaves (at the rear only) and long, unbroken roof line and; the Post War International Style (1940-60) with its cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass 2.

  • Grounds, Boyd and the Philip House
    4. Form Follows Formula: Grounds, Boyd and the Philip House Figure 4.1 Philip House, view from north-east Photograph: Ben Wrigley, 2011 John Philip was brought to Canberra as part of Frankel’s ambitious postwar recruitment program, and was appointed head of a new agricultural physics group at the CSIRO. Regarded as Australia’s leading environmental physicist, he was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1967. His wife, Frances (‘Fay’), was an accomplished artist who was related to the Boyds via the Mills and à Becketts, and had attended the Murrumbeena State School in Victoria with Mary and Arthur Boyd. Many of Frances’s portraits of Australia’s leading scientists and academics—including Sir Mark Oliphant, Doug Waterhouse, John Jaeger, William Rogers, Patrick Moran and Manning Clark—are held in the collections of the Australian Academy of Science and The Australian National University. The Philip House, at 42 Vasey Crescent, Campbell, is one of three adjacent houses by Grounds, Romberg and Boyd that are known collectively as the Vasey Crescent Group. The other two houses in the group are the Blakers House and the Griffing House. Grounds and Boyd were both involved with these houses. All three were designed by Grounds, who arranged initial briefings, recorded 101 Experiments in Modern Living the clients’ requirements and prepared sketches from late 1959 through to early 1960. Boyd met with the clients in January 1960, and took control of the houses from May of that year as Grounds prepared for a three-month overseas trip.1 The Philip House is important for two reasons.

  • Cross-Section, Dec 1968 (No
    UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE DEPARTMENT OF ARCHITECTURE CROSS-SECTION Issue No. 194 December 1, 1968 If The RAIA has bestowed its 1968 Gold Medal on architect Roy Grounds, for distinguished service in the Advancement of Architecture, thus crowning a career of notable achievement — and not before time! If Tasmanian architect Geoff Butterworth was awarded the St. Regis-A.C.I.-Scholarship for research into "Communications between Building Materials Suppliers and Architects". IF Melbourne's square, as everybody knows. Melbourne's square — as everybody knows — is caus- ing a lot of bellyaching and other birth-pangs among the locals. With at least one staunch ally on the City Council, the RAIA Vic. Chap. has mounted a model campaign to see that this opportunity for good Civic Planning is not allowed to lapse into the apathy of potted perennials. Hopes are high for an architectural competition: however, opinions vary about whether it should be international, Australia-wide, or restricted to Victoria. The problem is not so much how to design a square, as what to do with 11/2 acres of waste land between the side of a boom style town hall and the back of a gothic revival cathedral in the centre of a busy city. High on the list of idiot suggestions are 1) put a concrete replica of Batman's Boat (presumably in the middle of a sea of cement), and 2) an enormous floral clock (fitted with seats at a dollar a ride). C-S eagerly awaits the suggestion that it should be filled with buildings. We'll keep you posted.

  • National Gallery of Victoria (Former)
    Nationally Significant 20th-Century Architecture Revised 22/04/2011 National Gallery of Victoria (former) Address 180 St Kilda Road, Southbank 3006 Practice Grounds, Roy Designed 1959 Completed 1968 Address History & In 1959 Grounds, Romberg and Boyd were appointed architects to Description design a new NGV on a site in St Kilda Road. Later amid great 180 controversy Roy Grounds became the sole architect. His master plan placed the Gallery and two other smaller buildings at the southern end of the site, with the northern end reserved for the St Kilda Road future construction of a theatre and concert hall complex. The large palazzo-like gallery building is rectangular in form with Southbank three internal courtyards providing light and external views to surrounding galleries. The bluestone clad, reinforced concrete Victor 3006 building is relieved only by a large entrance archway and a bronze Victorian coat of arms by Norma Redpath on the front facade. The oriental influenced floating roof, with upturned eaves, is separated from the walls by a continuous band of high clerestorey windows, and a moat surrounds the entire building. The water theme is continued at the entry where a flow of water runs down a glass screen, now known as the water wall. The brief required the inclusion of a reception hall for State functions and this is four storeys in height and features an abstract ceiling of multi-coloured glass by the artist Leonard French. Two principal double height floors, at ground and second floor levels, contain the main gallery spaces, with intermediary floors containing many of the service RAIA Nº areas.

They are an excellent example of the Post-War Melbourne Regional style (1940-60) and are notable for displaying the design skill of the architect Sir Roy Grounds. The design incorporates many of the features that are specific to the style; widely projecting eaves, long unbroken roof line, narrow edge to roof and glass wall with regularly spaced timber mullions. The buildings also display elements of the Post-War International style, (1940-60), including cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass The following design features are of additional significance; the steel roofing; overhang for shade; plain smooth wall surfaces; exposed rafters; the face concrete blockwork and courtyards; the double height living space overlooked from the gallery and open planning with the interiors opening out into the landscape; the limed ash joinery and paneling; the straw ceiling and exposed framing; the original detailing and type of finishes using natural materials. The townhouses were awarded the RAIA ACT Chapter Twenty Five Year Award in 1996. The complex is important for its strong association with the talented architect Sir Roy Grounds who is considered a key practitioner in the Post-War Melbourne Regional style in Australia.
