Info
House at Caulfield, is a family home situated at 450 Dandenong Road in Caulfield North, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Designed by Anatol Kagan in 1956 whilst working at his practice Kagan & Associates. Russian-born on October 4, 1913 Anatol Kagan's career as an Architect spanned over seven decades until his death on July 2, 2009. He was actively involved in the field of design, also as a writer, translator, lecturer and political activist. The House is an important work of its period demonstrating the Modernist architectural movement of Melbourne during the 20th Century, in which he 'favoured rectilinear modernist compositions, often with protruding bays and timber mullioned window walls shaded by deep eaves'. The practice and Kagan himself were influenced by the works of Roy Grounds, Frederick Romberg and Robin Boyd.
