The "Architecture in Detail" series comprises books that focus on individual buildings noted for their exceptional character, innovative design or technical virtuosity. Each volume contains a text by a respected author, a sequence of colour and black-and-white photographs and a set of technical drawings and working details. Murcutt's houses combine the minimalist Miesian pavilion with the primitive hut to produce a striking and peculiarly Australian synthesis. These three houses chart the development of Murcutt's unique style, demonstrating his alliance of refinement and primitiveness.
