1. Write a concise report on the building (State Library of Victoria), analyzing it in terms of its context, function, form, planning, style and construction.
2. You will need to do historical research to explain its physical, social, political, and historical context.
3. Locate an HISTORICAL image of the building to include in your report (maximum of one exterior and one interior image).
4. Reflect upon the use of architectural styles in your analysis and the representational significance of their use.
5. Consider whether the building belongs to a broader typology and comment on that typology in the Melbourne context.
RESEARCH QUESTIONS:
– When was it built?
– Who was/were the architects and contractors (if known)?
– Who commissioned it?
– What was its original function?
– Has its use changed over time, and if so, how?

Key questions:
– What type of building is it? (what is its function/use?)

– Where does it stand in relation to its context? (these can be interior spaces, other buildings or urban elements such as streets, squares, parks, etc)
– What are its formal characteristics? i.e. How large is it? How is it assembled or composed? How does the eye travel across and around it? How do the elements relate? Do they form a coherent whole?
– Can you identify any particular architectural style or styles being used?
– Of what materials are the different building elements made?
– What is the plan of the building? How is the interior space organised?
