Model of the Kingaroy Court House Redevelopment
Queensland State Archives posted a photo:
Traditionally, Kingaroy has always been the centre of Australia’s peanut and navy bean industries but since the early 1990s it has also developed into one of the twin hubs of the South Burnett’s rapidly expanding wine industry. Several wineries are located either in or very close to the town, along with the Booie Range Distillery which opened in 2001 – only the third distillery in Queensland.
Droughts and uncertainty surrounding the region’s annual peanut crop led some farmers to diversify and grow grapes. Rich volcanic soil, hot dry summers and cold winters proved to be ideal conditions for wine growing. Quite a number of vineyards were established in the region, and the success of their wine enables the South Burnett region, which included Kingaroy, to promote the area as a tourist destination. The success of these enterprises has been largely attributed to the scenery of the

A Brief History of Architectural Model Making – Part 1
Model making is a key facet of any successful architectural programme. People may think that architectural model making only began when the technological revolution gave us the ability to build accurate and exact replicas, but actually architectural model making has a rich tradition stretching back through the ages.
Quite simply, where there has been architecture there has been architectural making. Building a scale model of a proposed building is one of the best ways to bring a building to life. The main function that an architectural model serves these days is a selling one – an architectural model is presented to a potential financial backer or client.
The idea behind a model is to further assist the financial backer or client to understand exactly what the building is intended to offer and will therefore enlighten them further as
Government Offices Precinct George Street Model
Queensland State Archives posted a photo:
Throughout the 20th century Brisbane’s government precinct has been the subject of numerous planning proposals.
In 1961 the State Government’s Works Department made an overall plan for the area, envisaging a series of slab buildings on the site, of which only the Executive Building was realised.
In 1973, the architecture firm Lund Hutton Newell Paulsen was invited to redevelop the area and set up a collaboration with the American architecture firm SOM.
They planned the precinct following SOM’s Field Theory Logic, resulting in the construction of 80 George Street, which was just part of the entire scheme.
