Editors: Honorary Professor Cameron Bruhn and Katelin Butler
Publisher: Thames & Hudson Australia (2022)

The New Queensland House presents twenty-eight awe-inspiring homes from the past decade, describing the architectural atmosphere in the early twenty-first century and exemplifying the ideas, teaching and buildings that have shaped the state's residential architecture.

This richly illustrated book takes the reader on an immersive journey through Queensland’s most exciting, contemporary architect-design houses. Visit glamorous hilltop villas that are a stage set for a splendid subtropical lifestyle; go inside the most hospitable family homes in relaxed garden suburbs; and revel in the perfect requirements for architectural escapism in pristine, remote locations.

The book also includes a foreword by David Malouf; scene-setting essays by Brit Andresen and Michael Kenniger, and Silvia Micheli and Ashley Paine; a photo essay of Donovan Hill’s C House by David Chatfield; and an historical pictorial endnote section that references older homes that are significant to the story of Queensland’s residential architecture.
