James Henry Esmond Dorney (1906–1991) was an influential Australian architect renowned for his Streamline Moderne apartment blocks in Melbourne during the 1930s and innovative Modernist houses in Tasmania throughout the 1950s and 60s. He played a significant role in introducing Modernism to Tasmania. His most notable work includes his second home from 1966, designed on a hilltop with views of Hobart, Tasmania. This house, reconstructed after a fire in 1978, has been owned by the Hobart City Council since 2006 and is frequently open to public visits.
