The book  is a 224 large format page publication illustrated with 270 images, including many from the National Library of Australia’s Eric Milton Nicholls Collection, and photographs by Max Dupain, Mati Maldre and contemporary full colour photographs by Eric Sierins of unique houses in Sydney’s north shore.

The launch will take place at the Incinerator Art Space at Willoughby Incinerator, a significant heritage building designed by Burley Griffin and his partner Eric Nicholls and described by society members as “a fitting place to see and appreciate Griffin’s architecture at first hand.”
