About

Canberra Modern are delighted to celebrate the launch of the new publication - Pettit & Sevitt: The Modernist Project. Kathryn Franco's illustrated history of the influential Australian project home builder Pettit + Sevitt is a landmark publication documenting important developments in home design in Australia.

Pettit & Sevitt's mission was to make it possible for Australians to buy an architect-designed home at a price they could afford. Working some of Australia's most renowned architects including Ken Woolley, Michael Dysart, Russell Jack, Neil Clerehan and Harry Seidler, they created homes that were modular, functional and beautiful in their simplicity.

Kathryn Franco will speak about the development of this publication, and Canberra Modern will faciliate a panel style Q&A session with owners of Pettit & Sevitt Homes in Canberra and the legacy of these designs into the future.
