Modern Melbourne: Peter McIntyre
In this episode we speak with Peter McIntyre.
Modern Melbourne is a series of interviews that document the extraordinary lives and careers of some of our most important architects and designers.
In this episode we speak with Peter McIntyre. After graduating from RMIT, Peter McIntyre went on to design and build one of Melbourne’s most iconic houses—River House. In 1952, in partnership with Bolland and Murphy, he won the competition to design the Melbourne Olympic Swimming Stadium. Both buildings established his position as Australia”s leading experimental modernist.
Presented by Open House Melbourne, the series is made possible by the generous support of the interview subjects, the Heritage Council of Victoria and the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria.
