Cassandra Chilton

Cassandra is a landscape architect and a Principal at Rush Wright Associates, as well as a member of the Hotham Street Ladies, a group of four women who at one time lived in a share household in Collingwood, and still draw much inspiration from this household, including their love of food, dinner parties, domestic landscapes and sense of community. The Hotham Street Ladies’ work embraces the themes of food, fashion, feminism and craft; and how their collaborative participation in, and contemporising of, these activities creates their own distinct cultural community and connects to others. The Hotham Street Ladies combine innovation and contemporary critique with nostalgic or familiar elements that are accessible to a wide audience.

The Hotham Street Ladies also include Molly O’Shaughnessy, Sarah Parkes and Caroline Price.
