New Australian Homes

Key Residential Developments in Australia – Contemporary house images & news

post updated 1 January 2025

Australia Architecture Designs – chronological list

We’ve selected what we feel are the key examples of Australian Homes. We aim to include projects that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.

We cover completed properties, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across Australia. The focus is on contemporary homes but information on traditional residential buildings is also welcome.

We have 4 pages of Australian house selections with links to many individual project pages.
