From the early days of European migration to America, in the 17th Century, the prototype of buildings was based on English precedent, even if mostly translated into the locally available material in abundance: timber.

Borne out of this, starting around the 17th Century was the Baroque era. It is my view that it is one of the architectural peak periods in western civilisation.

The form language used by the ancient Egyptians in their structures is minimal.

Fifty years ago people were talking about Sydney's sprawl, but nobody does anything about it.
