About Me
- Brad
- The architectural practice of brad hooper architect was established in 1982 and since then has been involved in the design of several hundred residential projects. Other work has included commmercial, institutional and industrial projects. This work has been for sites across Australia in cities and regional areas. Sites have been compact inner urban and broad-acre bush. It has been a great experience - I have seen some fantastic places and met some wonderful people - and it's not over yet.
Hi Brad,
ReplyDeleteIs that kangaroo paw? And are those boulders remnants from glacial action? They look similar to the ones at Lake Mountain.

Hi Lena,
ReplyDeleteThat is a kangaroo paw (Anigozanthos, family Haemodoraceae). One of the 7 Australian genera (worldwide 14 genera with 100 species). This example was in Kings Park in Perth WA, its natural range.
The boulders are granite, located on the escarpment of Deep Creek at Bulla NW of Melbourne. This geology of this region is influenced by the volcanic flows from Mt Macedon and associated former volcanoes.
