This book looks exclusively at the finest examples of contemporary residences from Australian and New Zealand designers and architects. From award-winning luxury residences, to simple beach shacks, inner-city apartments, rural retreats and family homes, these 100 homes reflect the way we live, or aspire to live in the 21st century. This entirely new list of homes reflects the wide variety and originality of talent and design direction that is on offer in both countries, and just why the ‘Down Under’ vernacular is so appealing and influential around the world.

The greatest challenge in designing homes is negotiating the delicate balance between aesthetics and the personal desires of the occupants. While it`s important for the structure to reflect the vision and style of the architect, the client must ultimately feel at home beneath the roof. It is particularly interesting, therefore, to examine the homes that architects create for themselves. If houses reflect their owners` personalities, then architects` own homes are like autobiographies. Location, layout, style, lighting, artwork, furnishings — every detail adds color to the story. Each of these 100 dwellings, presented A-Z by architect, speaks more about its designer than any other building possibly could.

100 Houses is a superb sourcebook of contemporary private houses of all styles in all parts of the world. From North America to Japan, and from London to Sydney, the diverse range of locations, architectural styles, scales and budgets brought together here represents the very best in domestic architecture of the past few years. Each project is generously illustrated to show all its exterior and interior features, and the houses are compellingly described by architectural critic and journalist Cathy Strongman to highlight their key characteristics and how these have been accomplished. Offering the reader a rare insight into the work of some of today’s top architectural practices, this is an essential reference for architects and interior designers as well as anyone wanting to build or extend their own home.
