Formidable designer Derek Wrigley, passed away last month, aged 97. You can find his obituary on the ArchitectureAU website and the DIA’s (Design Institute of Australia) website. I knew and worked with Derek for some years in Canberra and I think his design interests were so broad and deep that his exploits could have filled four lives.
Architect
Derek Wrigley graduated in architecture from the Manchester College of Art in 1945 and worked briefly in the UK before emigrating to Australia in 1947. Very soon he purchased an abandoned quarry in Dee Why on the NSW Northern beaches for £100, and he set about building a house, which he called OB1 (for owner builder).

I bid farewell to my colleagues at the Junior Graphic on Monday, July 31, 2017, after the end of production for the week.
Meanwhile, midway through production, the team had to pause for some few minutes to organise a send-off for me, during which I was presented with a parting gift. It was a short but emotional ceremony, which signified the end of my tenure as the Assistant Editor at the Junior Graphic.
The next day, Tuesday, August 1, 2017, I assumed office as the Night Editor of the Daily Graphic. It was a new terrain for me, with very tight schedules, even though the processes were not very different from what prevailed at both The Mirror and the Junior Graphic.
