Statement of Significance

21 Bindaring Parade is a unique example of the Inter-War Mediterranean architectural style, of which there are very few in Claremont. The house was built by the architect Rodney Alsop, whose distinct style can be found throughout Claremont. Alsop, along with his business partner, H. L. Wunderlich as owner of Brisbane and Wunderlich, revolutionised the clay roof tile in Western Australia. Among Alsop’s crowning achievements was the design of Winthrop Hall at the University of Western Australia.

Physical Description
