Robin Boyd: A Life by Geoffrey Serle is the essential biography of Australia’s most influential modernist architect, chronicling his rise from young idealist to fierce cultural critic. This 1996 illustrated edition from Melbourne University Press pairs rare photos and plans with Serle’s crisp narrative, giving readers an intimate look at Boyd’s impact on post-war Australian design.

The hardback arrives in very good shape: tight binding, bright dust jacket, clean pages free of dog-ears, and only a faint scuff on page 326. A previous owner has neatly inscribed the front inner cover; no author signature, but the note adds a personal touch for collectors of Australian architectural history.

Ideal for students, architects, or anyone drawn to mid-century culture, this vintage copy offers both reference depth and shelf presence. Secure a piece of Australia’s design legacy—smoke-free, carefully stored, and ready to inspire.
