Philip Oliver Ellard Hawkes

Philip Oliver Ellard Hawkes was an architect who practiced in the Wide Bay area of Queensland, Australia, from 1910 to 1942. A number of his works are heritage-listed.

Early life

Hawkes was born in 1882 in New South Wales.[1]

Architectural career

Hawkes worked in Perth, Launceston and Melbourne. Moving to Queensland, he worked briefly for the Works Department in 1909 before setting up his own practice in Bundaberg and Maryborough in 1910. He designed a number of premises for the Queensland National Bank; most of these were simple timber buildings, although the Kingaroy branch was a two storey masonry building, also in a Classical Revival style. This also featured round headed arches as do the Carroll Cottage and Carrollee Hotel in Kingaroy, which were also designed by Hawkes.[1]

Notable works
gollark: Current Discord culture does not really care.
gollark: I'm glad the staff team has realized the supremacy of Rust over all other languages.
gollark: I think it would make more sense and be less complex if users actually had to send transactions to transfer money, instead of just letting things make them for them and hoping the things can be trusted.
gollark: That also seems bad.
gollark: Oh, and is there a reason for the system where to pay for things online with a credit card, you have to provide information which allows whoever you give it to to make arbitrary transactions (as long as nobody flags it as fraud or something?).
