From colour-soaked apartments to richly layered family homes, this year’s Australian Interior Design Awards spotlight the most inspired residential spaces shaping how we live today.

Grove House by Cadence & Co is a soulful reimagining of a 1920s bungalow, where heritage meets contemporary—embracing its past and the rhythms of modern living.

A joyful reimagining by Timmins Architecture, Casa Cassata blends colour, pattern, playful details, and smart design into a warm, light-filled forever home.

Through the use of colour, bold material choices and refined spatial edits, creative director Matthew Vescovo brings a new rhythm to his 1930s Bellevue Hill apartment.

Brought to life through a remote collaboration between STILO Architecture and owner-designer Alyssa Owens, Helen Street is a layered family home where heritage, art, and nature converge with quiet intent.
