Harry Seidler was a fairly controversial architect, merely due to his unusually-shaped constructions. These designs of his had a major impact on the rest of the designing industry, as his style is now recognised as a more modern form of architecture.
Early Life:
Seidler was born in Vienna, Austria, 1923, where he attended the prestigious Wasagymnasium. However, with the commencement of World War 2, his parents migrated to England to join their son, in an attempt to escape the Nazi Anschluss. While in England, Seidler studied building and construction while attending Cambridge Technical College, but was soon recognised as an alien, and was sent to a prisoner of war camp in 1940, where he was to be held captive for 18 months in Canada.
