Houses
This curated selection has an affinity to the types of stories told in Houses magazine – innovative and inspiring Australian residential architecture and design. From resourceful homes grounded in sustainable, responsible design and experiments in small-scale living that revitalize existing housing in Australian cities to a series of monumental sheds in the Byron Bay hinterland, the homes explored in these films are testament to the inventive thinking that underpins the best of Australian residential architecture.
The Houses selection also features films that celebrate the legacy and enduring appeal of residential architecture from decades past, and that resonate with our Revisited series. Tune in to Streets of your Town for Tim Ross’s tribute to Australian modernist architecture, and discover the story of the extraordinarily committed homeowners who painstakingly rebuilt a treasured 1960s house in Perth, originally designed by Iwan Iwanoff but tragically gutted by fire, in Restoration Australia series 2, hosted by Stuart Harrison.
Engross yourself in these remarkable works of residential architecture, and enjoy hearing from the people who designed them, and the owners who are lucky enough to call them home.
