Picture Ipswich is looking for photographs of mid-20th century houses and buildings in Ipswich. The second half of the 20th century saw advances in technology and the introduction of modern architecture with many changes occurring in the design of homes and buildings after World War II.
Mid-20th century modern architecture includes buildings designed in the late 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and even the 1970s. Are there buildings in Ipswich built during this time that you think are good examples of a style of building or that you think make a positive contribution to our streetscapes?
Entering photographs for the photo drive will be taken to be evidence of the photographer’s consent for the images to be included on the Picture Ipswich website. Copyright at all times remains with the submitter.
If you would like to share your photos, documents or other memorabilia relating to modern buildings please email or phone the Council’s Strategic Planning Branch on (07)3810 6256.
