| DESCRIPTION |
| Details (Known As) |
City of Mitcham Council Chambers, 1934-54 |
| Registered Name |
City of Mitcham Council Chambers, 1934-54 |
| Significance |
The City of Mitcham Council Chambers, completed in 1934, is an outstanding representative of particular construction techniques and design characteristics. The Place is the earliest of a small group of civic buildings identified in South Australia that were constructed in the modern or Art Deco style of the 1930s. The purpose designed building is largely intact with a high degree of scale and integrity.
The design by architect Dean Berry, possibly in association with Christopher Smith, displays a new development in design, and qualities of innovation, as it introduces and develops the Art Deco style, a departure from Berry's previous work. |
