To further showcase the sustainability benefits, versatility and design possibilities of terracotta roof tiles, a new award category has been introduced this year, named after renowned architect Robin S. Dods. Robin Dods believed in sustainable design to suit the climate, especially in roofing. His distinctive style of gablet roofs for domestic dwellings, which combined passive solar design while allowing for ventilation and insulation, became prevalent all over Queensland in the early 1900s. 2016 will see the inauguration of the Robin Dods Terracotta Roof Award for the best residential or commercial building design that has made inventive use of terracotta roof tiles as a prominent feature. In addition to the $15,000 cash prize for the Robin Dods Terracotta Roof category, and $10,000 cash prizes for the other five categories, a Grand Prix Prize will be awarded to the overall best entry across all six categories. The winner will win two Business Class tickets to Venice Biennale 2018. In 2015, we received over 300 nominations across all award categories. Every year we continue to be inspired by the creativity and innovation in architectural designs using roof tiles. We look forward to seeing how your projects have transcended their roof tile beginnings to embody timelessness. Elizabeth McIntyre CEO Roofing Tile Association of Australia 4 5 ROOF TILE EXCELLENCE AWARD FINALIST 2015 Industry overview Who is Roofing Tile Association of Australia? Nedlands Residence The Roofing Tile Association of Australia is the roof tile industry’s peak organisation, Roger Cuperus representing the concerns and interests of members across the country, with a particular Design & Drafting focus on training (including apprenticeships) and occupational health and safety issues. The RTAA represents more than 90 per cent of the roof tile industry, including all manufacturers of concrete and terracotta roof tiles. Tiled roofs combine superior durability, colour fastness, strength with a long life. They also help reduce the intrusion of external noises, provide protection against radiant heat in a bushfire, have high levels of thermal insulation, and offer more resistance to wind suction than lightweight sheets. Those are just some of the reasons why tiled roofs are preferred by more home owners and builders across Australia. Australian Roof Tiling Market The roof is an integral part of any building, and roof tiling celebrates a skilled trade to execute design. In 2013, the Roofing Services industry generated a total of $2.65 billion in revenue with $875 million value-added services.

Collection includes drawings by Brit Andresen, Peter O'Gorman, Michael Keniger and University of Queensland architectural students. Date range 1966 - 2011 Biography Brit Andresen was born in 1945 in Trondheim, Norway. During her childhood, Brit travelled to Australia on several occasions while her father worked as an engineer on large hydroelectric projects from 1951 to 1963. She completed her Bachelor of Architecture in 1969 from Trondheim University, Norway. In 1977 Andresen moved to Australia to work in what was intended to be a temporary full-time position with the University of Queensland. She went on to be the first female appointed in the Department of Architecture. It was here she met Peter O’Gorman. They married in 1980 and set up the practice Andresen O’Gorman Architects. Their work has been awarded and internationally published, which includes a special edition of UME 22 (2011). O’Gorman died in 2001. In 2002 Andresen was the first female recipient of the RAIA Gold Medal. Andresen’s concern in the 1980s about the rapidly disappearing Australian architectural heritage led to two projects – one with Michael Keniger and a number of students entitled “Main Street: Queensland country towns” and the other “Anglican Churches in the Diocese of Brisbane. The latter project was also to become the topic of Andresen’s PhD dissertation. After 33 years at University of Queensland, Andresen retired in in 2010 and was appointed Emeritus Professor in the School of Architecture.

Later it was to serve the St Francis Theological College. It was moved to its present site in 1936 after the College was relocated to Milton. The Church has a longstanding connection with the parishioners of Nundah and has been in continual use since its construction. History The Corporation of the Synod of the Diocese of Brisbane acquired the land the Church of the Holy Spirit is located upon in October 1936. Prior to this acquisition the property was part of over 21 acres that had been under the ownership of the War Service Homes Commissioner. Sources indicate that the Church was originally constructed for the Eton High School for Girls. The chapel was originally designed by Robin Dods, based upon his plan he used for the church at “Cressbrook”, Toogoolawah. Eventually the chapel became part of St Francis Theological College. When the College moved to Milton the chapel remained …unused and was to be moved to allow an extension to Boyd Road.

    ARCHIVE 1978 TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURE IN THE PACIFIC An Overview Bal Saini Emeritus Professor of Architecture University of Queensland Pacific: Map showing Micronesia, Polynesia, Melanesia and Australasia. (American Geographical Society of 1 New York). ARCHIVE 1978 Architecture of the Pacific covers a region of more than third of the earth’s surface. The sparse Pacific population spreads over some 30000 islands, which graduate in size from small atolls to the largest island, Australia, a continent. Pacific architecture can be studied as four cultural units: Mi- cronesia, Polynesia, Melanesia, and Australasia (Australia and New Zealand). While many of the islands of Micronesia lie above the Equator, the remaining Pacific islands are in the southern hemisphere. With the exception of Australia, most of the islands have a warm and humid tropical climate with high rainfalls and lush vegetation. Some islands lie in the cy- clonic and earthquake belts. Two distinct racial groups settled the region. The indigenous people, the Micronesians, Melanesians, Polynesians, Austra- lian Aborigines and New Zealand Maoris, migrated from Asia thousands of years ago. The second group, the recent immi- grants, were Europeans, who occupied the region during the last two centuries, and pockets of Asians brought in by colo- nial administrations as labourers during the early twentieth century. Eoropean colonisation European colonizing incursions into the Pacific islands be- gan during the eighteenth century, as the Industrial Revolu- tion stimulated the need for raw materials and markets.
