		<title>Land for sale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
A new listing has popped up this week. Nothin’ special, just another old place on large land. Done by some bloke in the 50s who had something to do with some gallery on St Kilda Rd. Not sure really and who cares anyway because when you pay 2 million dollars for the land and rip [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hey Everyone!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Victorian readers may have seen MA and other like minded folk featured in last week’s Sunday Age Newspaper. How we love a good write up, remembering the more publicity we get as a community the more chance our beloved homes and design principals permeate the culture. See the article here.
We also made a new friend [...]]]></description>

		<title>House Roundup August</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Spring has sprung.
Parliament is hung.
It’s the time for Mid-Century houses.
…..or something like that. Anyway this month, thanks, as always to our dear readers, the real estate round up is a veritable tsunami of new listings.
Starting in QLD we have a clutch of perfectly preserved specimens, most seemingly up for vacant possession (?). This includes houses [...]]]></description>

		<title>Last drinks at The Naval &amp; Military Club</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While the woolly jumpers concerned citizens of Melbourne gnash their teeth and flood local papers with tomes of concern over the re-development of the Windsor Hotel in Spring St (a plan which sees a clear and sympathetic restoration of the old dame’s wilted interior/exterior), a mere 10 metres round the corner yet another Modernist building [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mid-Century Melbourne Mod-O-Rama!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[MA has experienced a flurry of meeting and greeting this week. Beginning with an encounter of Modernist minds at Robin Boyd’s Walsh St home, progressing to a tour of some key houses in the premier Modernist Melbourne suburb of Studley Park and then a ‘do’ to celebrate a visit from retro American artiste Shag.

Without overlooking [...]]]></description>

		<title>SOS &#8211; WEG house under threat!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Victorians fondly remember the work of gentleman artist William Ellis Green AKA WEG (OAM). His illustrations in the Herald-Sun and the AFL form part of Melbourne’s cultural lexicon and over 54 years raised millions of dollars for The Royal Children’s Hospital.  Indeed, until 2009, it would not be a total victory for your footy [...]]]></description>

		<title>More furniture friends</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week we received a yoo-hoo from another regional Modernist furniture store, this time on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria.
As we’ve mentioned before, it’s particularly disheartening to see Mid-Century home wares so coveted yet the houses in which they belong continually being lost to development, that is why our new friends at Codename Tom gladden our [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mid-Century furniture in Tugun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A little shout out to our new friends at Found Furniture. They import and restore locally made treasures with the help of their “old school upholster Bruce”. It is always good to hear from any purveyors of fine Modernist Furniture and ephemera, especially those in places other than our major cities. Keep them coming!

		<title>ASOS rides again!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few of you old timey readers may remember a previous flight of fancy from the old site titled ‘As Seen on Screen’. We thought it was too good to let go so now you’ll find this collection of great Mod homes from film and television under our ‘What is Modernism?’ page. We are also proud [...]]]></description>
