Shandon (flats) |
Registered Name |
Shandon (flats) |
Significance |
Shandon (flats) demonstrates an important evolution in the way South Australians lived during the twentieth century. The development of purpose-built flats began to reshape the suburbs after the First World War, providing the middle class with a popular alternative to conventional detached housing. Developed by Edith Duncan as owner-occupier, Shandon (flats) further demonstrates that women were actively involved in the rise of flats as a new way of living during the interwar period.
Constructed in 1940 in Glenelg South, Shandon (flats) is an uncommon example of this new, modern way of living, as the Second World War brought a halt to the construction of dwellings. Shandon (flats) is an outstanding example of purpose-built interwar flats, demonstrating many of the principal characteristics of the class. Shandon (flats) is also an outstanding representative of interwar streamlined architecture, articulating many of the key attributes of the style such as bold, asymmetrical massing, clean lines and rounded corners, and horizontal emphasis with contrasting vertical relief. |
