Atrium
Back in Melbourne we visited the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) at Federation Square. This houses the finest collection of Australian art in the country (largely the result of several major bequests going back to the halcyon days of the Victorian gold rush in the 1880s).
The architecture of Federation Square is clearly post-modern, in so far as it seems to be an eclectic mix of radical styles based on geometric patterns. This atrium is a good example. It is through here that we enter the NGV (Federation Square).
The architects of Federation Square were Peter Davidson and Donald Bates from Lab Architecture.
