Around & about Stock Orchard Street

Book excerpt: Completed in 2000, 9/10 Stock Orchard Street has resisted categorization and this has continued to challenge critics and observers. With contributions from well-known writers in the field, this book responds to the debate, reflecting positively and negatively on what the buildings represent and how they have performed, ten years on. Supported by a wealth of technical drawings and photographic material, the contributions discuss theory, practice, education, material culture, narrative, sustainability and construction, presenting conclusions relevant and insightful for today's readers, both professional and academic.
