Austerity House - a photo on Flickriver

Austerity House

            I stand to be corrected by architectural experts, but this seems to me to be a good expression of the post-WW2 Australian austerity house. With many materials in scare supply following the privations of a world war, domestic architecture had to make do with cheaper houses until the late 1950s.

There's nothing fancy about this house, but the builders have tried to make it interesting with the main entrance on the right hand side (quite radical for its time), and a windowed section on the other side to balance it. I'd also suggest the front concrete fence with steel rods is also authentically of the time. A nice place to live on a budget.
