Galvin’s father was an Architect and her mother was a Nurse. Growing up Galvin was constantly around a creative environment. ''"I grew up surrounded by Architecture, discussions around Architecture; Architecture books and magazines".'' This upbringing resulted in Galvin having a ''"very visual, aesthetic interest".'' Her childhood home was an old timber framed house built by her father, often with the help of young Galvin and occasionally their neighbours. Galvin attended John XXIII College, a private, co-education, catholic college. She studied traditional subjects at school such as French, Math, Chemistry, Physics, English Literature and Biology; she enjoyed all subjects, in particular Math and Literature.〔 Part of Galvin was determined to stray from following in her father’s footsteps. For years she researched different professions; initially thinking she might study Physiotherapy or Chemistry. It wasn’t until the end of her secondary education that she realized that Architecture was a culmination of many things she enjoyed and excelled at. Architecture was a profession that involved ''"problem solving..."'' whilst creating ''"...beauty at the same time".''〔 After completion of high school Galvin commenced a Bachelor of Architecture at the University of Western Australia in 1988. Galvin learnt from a variety of different educators including Geoffrey London, Simon Anderson, Michael Markham, Charlie Mann, Peter Brew, Howard Raggatt and Ian McDougall. Two key influential figures outlined above were Geoffrey London and Simon Anderson they ''"…created an environment of complete experimentation".''〔 This environment exposed Galvin to various creative processes that are relative to problem solving aspects of architecture. Galvin graduated from the Bachelor of Architecture with honours in 1992 where she began her first job at Hames Sharley. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abbie Galvin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
