Edmond and Corrigan is an Australian architectural firm based in Melbourne, Victoria, founded in the late 1970s by partners Maggie Edmond and Peter Corrigan, the firm's principals. The practice's work, both built and written, has been widely associated with the emergence of architectural postmodernism in Australia,[1] an interest in suburbia[2] and a search for an Australian architectural identity.[3] Peter Corrigan taught design studios at RMIT University for over 30 years, until his death in December 2016.[4]
Architectural practice
The practice of Edmond and Corrigan was officially formed in 1975, though the pair had gradually been collaborating and associating on projects after Corrigan's return from America in 1974. Much of their early work consisted of church buildings and community buildings for the Catholic communities of suburban Melbourne.
They designed the Keysborough Church of the Resurrection, completed in 1977, and later buildings in Keysborough.[5] The project was published in 1977.[6] The School of the Resurrection, Keysborough was awarded the Victorian Architecture Medal in 1979.
The practice's subsequent projects, many of them in suburban sites, continued with the idea of an Australian architectural language, visible in their competition entries for the Parliament House, Canberra Competition in 1977, The Australian Stockman's Hall of Fame and the State Library of Victoria, their many projects for community buildings, and their work for universities.
They later undertook larger projects; many of them, particularly RMIT Building 8, pursued the idea of 'a city in a single building'.[7] Their Athan House of 1986 was published widely.
The practice also worked extensively in stage and set design for Opera Australia, Melbourne University Theatre Group, and La Mama.
Peter Corrigan wrote about his practice's work and about others, explicitly stating the practice's goal of creating or fostering a particularly Australian architectural language.
Recognition
In 2003 Peter Corrigan was awarded the RAIA Gold Medal, 2003, the highest accolade of the Australian architecture profession. In 1993 he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Architecture from RMIT University.
Twenty years later, in 2023, Maggie Edmond was awarded the Australian Institute of Architects Gold Medal at the National Awards, with her name added to the same award that was presented to Peter Corrigan in 2003. At the 2023 National Awards she described the correction as 'restorative'.[8][9] The rectification awards their work as a unique and innovative partnership.
