Courtyard house by architect Roy Grounds, Sydney, 1954

The Shine Dome (previously known as Becker House) is a well-known Canberra landmark, notable for its unusual structure, and coloquially referred to as "The Martian Embassy", an allusion to its shape and the fact that as the capital of Australia, Canberra is the home of foreign embassies. The building was designed by architect Sir Roy Grounds, of Grounds, Romberg and Boyd. When completed in 1959 its 45.75m-diameter dome was the largest in Australia.
