About Fabrications:
Fabrications is the refereed journal of the Society of Architectural Historians,
Australia and New Zealand. Established in 1989, it is devoted to scholarly publication
in the field of architectural history. While one need not be a member of SAHANZ to
publish in Fabrications, the Journal's contents reflect the wide interests of the
Society's diverse membership. It particularly welcomes papers on the architectural,
urban and landscape history of Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific and South-East
Asian regions, while casting its net much further afield.
The journal thus publishes refereed, academic essays and book reviews (by invitation or
application) that are both purely concerned with the region, and which take a wider view
of international questions, or issues beyond the Society's obvious frame of reference.
The Society publishes two issues each year, one open, the other themed. Themes change
from year to year, and have recently included 'Asia and the Pacific,' 'Nationalism and Identity,'
'Kiwi Architecture,' 'Museums, Heritage and Architectural History,' 'Style' and 'A Regional Practice'.
The Books Received and Book Reviews sections account for new publications in architectural
history concerned with Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific and South-East Asian regions and for
books written and edited by SAHANZ members.
Together with the published proceedings of the annual SAHANZ conferences, Fabrications offers
the most sustained analysis of the region's architectural history and historiography.
We welcome, at any time, expressions of interest from both members and non-members.
