Mornington Peninsula's creative architectural heritage

A new show at the Mornington Peninsula Art Gallery pieces together the important architectural innovation and heritage of the Mornington Pensinsula, just outside Melbourne.

Here architectural experimentation has always played a role -- a life away from the restraints of city life. Many of the features we take for granted in houses nowadays were encouraged along the Mornington Peninsula -- bold structural statements, glass-curtain walls and the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor space. The show is called Out of the Square: Beach Architecture on the Mornington Peninsula.
