Across Queensland, New South Wales and South Australia, this year’s Australian Institute of Architects Awards offered a clear view of where Australian architecture is heading: towards greater civic generosity, stronger regional work, more considered housing, and buildings that respond with intelligence to place.

Spanning public architecture, commercial design, housing, interiors, sustainability and small project architecture, the awarded work reflects the breadth of architectural practice shaping Australia’s built environment. From major civic and commercial projects to finely resolved homes and community spaces.
