Inter-war period.
Between the wars, some distinctive architectural styles emerged,
often reflecting elements of the streamlined trains, planes,
and cars of the period. Such styles have become known as art
moderne or streamline moderne.
Quite a few impressive houses from between the wars
can be found in Seaforth along Ponsonby
Parade and Seaforth Crescent.
|
In NSW, pubs are often very
striking inter-war design exercises.
|
Killara has the occasional fine
example of a house from the period.
|
After the war, elements of the inter-war style were
occasionally carried over, as in this
Pymble house, built in 1951.
|
Flats on Sydney Rd, Fairlight.
|
There are many examples in Castlecrag.
This one by architect Eric Nicholls is very unusual.
