Private Life Of Public Architecture
This book is not just about a building. It is about how major architecture gets commissioned, managed and built in Australia today. In this case, we look at the new billion dollar Melbourne Convention Centre. The book follows the whole process, from three trucks of drawings, documents, models sent to the Premier?s office, which won the competition, through to the newspapers lurching into gear with their familiar rhetoric. Yet despite the glare of media attention, the process that lies behind big architecture is far from clear. This book explores this process, through a building that not only challenges the conventions of public space, but also what architecture means in the contemporary city
