The New 100 Houses x 100 Architects by Robyn Beaver

The importance of tuning into the dynamics of a site is emphasized in this book, which explores one hundred inspiring homes from around the world. Featured Australian projects include Broome House in Western Australia by Iredale Pedersen Hook, Brookes Street House in Queensland by James Russell Architect, De Iuliis House in New South Wales by HBO + EMTB and Mount Macedon Residence in Victoria by Inarc Architects. Each project is reviewed alongside plans and colour photos, giving a sense of the houses within their contexts and the thinking behind the designs. This collection of houses – from the deceptively simple to the blatantly over-the-top – is a showcase of architectural trends that will satisfy a curiosity about how other people live.
