|1| Canberra Historical Study |

To begin my thought process for this semester and its focus around Australian Parliament and the Canberra Capital, I decided to study the history of our capital and its design. Here are a series of historical maps and models capturing its typology....... Below is the final approved concept by Walter Burley Griffin as well as a series of physical models...





Here is also a series of further maps which define the typology and form Canberra displays....It appears to be planned and focuses heavily on circles/ patterns...
