Broadcaster, comedian, design buff and INDE. judge Tim Ross is delving into the origins of architectural modernism. In Australia, the modernist design philosophy exploded in the mid 20th century as architects rejected the ornamental and took to embracing a love of materials like steel and glass. In Streets Of Your Town, a two-part ABC TV series focusing on the aesthetics of Australian suburbs, Tim Ross is serving as the tour guide for a personal and public journey across Australian design.
From Modernism to McMansion, this two part special is the story of our suburbs. Available on ABC’s iView platform, we can think of no better way to get acquainted with Tim and his love of 20th century design before seeing how he tackles the 21st century as a judge in the inaugural INDE.Awards in 2017.
