Esmond Dorney : ウィキペディア英語版 | Esmond Dorney
James Henry Esmond Dorney born on 17 September 1906 to parents Marie Louise Kiernan and James Henry Dorney in Melbourne, Victoria and spent most of his teenage life at their family home in Elwood. Dorney was employed by Walter Burley Griffin before he started his own practice in 1930. After World War II, Esmond Dorney moved to Hobart and continued his practice until he died on 25 December 1991. ==Early life== Dorney studied Architecture at the University of Melbourne, however quickly became embittered by the course, dismissing it as ‘a meaningless pursuit of Classical Revival.’ He was later expelled for racing his Delage around the university campus, presumably without regret.〔http://www.architecture.com.au/i-cms_file?page=6886/Preswinter08.pdf〕 In the mid-1920s Dorney trained with Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahoney,〔() Blythe, Richard, Living The Modern Australian Architecture〕 architects of significant note in Australia and internationally, specifically Chicago. Though he learnt through them a respect for the landscape which became a valuable element of his style, particularly in the design of his own residence in Fort Nelson, Tasmania, he rejected the Prairie School aesthetic and upon that premise discontinued his training. In 1929 at the age of 23 Dorney, drawing on his training with Walter Burley Griffin & Marion Mahoney and his experiences with the engineering firm Johns & Waygood from whom he attributed an ‘understanding of the capabilities of new technologies’ established his own practice.〔http://www.architecture.com.au/i-cms_file?page=6886/Preswinter08.pdf〕
