QUEENSLAND STYLE GUIDED TOURS WORTH A VISIT
Silvia is pleased to tell guests about the history of Ipswich and eventually to bring them in a walking tour of some places of cultural interest.
Queensland architecture is Australia's most iconic architectural style and worth a visit.
Its beautiful distinct and unique type of residential housing, is widespread in Ipswich.
Homes are typically "tripartite" in sectional composition defining characteristic of the Queenslander type:
- underfloor (stumps), often used as protection for houses in flood prone areas;
- main living areas of the house (can be two levels), with one or more veranda spaces, built typically for climate,
- the roof is a large and visible, and was traditionally steeply pitched, of varied materials, including slate and tiles, but most characteristically sheeted with corrugated steel. The steel roofs could withstand torrential rains and be reused if damaged by cyclonic winds
