Riverside Modern with Jack Lovel and Jake Taylor

  • Talk
  • Events

Celebrate the launch of the book Riverside Modern, by architect Jake Taylor and photographer Jack Lovel, at Walsh Street.

Jack and Jake discuss the making of the book, the stories behind documenting Studley Park's remarkable collection of modernist homes, and the ideas that shaped this unique architectural record.

Nestled within Melbourne's Studley Park, Riverside Modern explores one of Australia's most significant concentrations of post-war modernist houses, tracing the neighbourhood's architectural legacy from the 1940s to the 1970s.

Riverside Modern is available to be pre-purchased with the TALK + Book Included ticket option where the book can be collected at the event.
