Precedent: Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Frederick Romberg
This is the perfect example of all architecture needs to be. Square plan, elegantly squat roof and spire, basic but good quality materials, beautifully simple detailing (notice how the roof is held up by fine steel columns which are pulled off the corners to let the domestic timber window frames run past), a wonderful setting, and a warm soft light in the interiors.
Images: Frederick Romberg, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Canberra, 1961-63
'A Sculpture For Living' aims to act as fly-paper to capture ideas, desires, references, research, readings, images, iterations, materials and eventually final documentation of the development of a house for Lily and Martin.
