This year, over 100 rooms around the country were entered into the Australian House & Garden’s Top 50 Rooms competition, an award that has been running for 21 years to celebrate the best of Australia’s design talent. Think bling, think colour, think lux marble surfaces, as well as many unexpected moments of delight!

Australian House & Gardens editor Tanya Buchanan highlighted ‘the jury recognised new directions in interior design in these projects, including the clever use of raw materials, a love of simplicity and restrained approach to design. We are truly honoured to showcase the very best rooms in Australia.’

The judging panel was a line-up of home and interiors experts, including Harry Bolanakis of King Living, Kirsten Stanisich and Jonathan Richards of Richards Stanisich, Richard Unsworth the founder of Garden Life, Saskia Havekes founder of Grandiflora, and Kate Nixon, Australian House and Garden’s interiors and houses editor.
