Synopsis

Australia¹s harbor city—a heady mix of European, Asian, and indigenous elements—encapsulates many of our 21st-century aspirations about architecture and interior style. Private Sydney explores an enviable way of life that is relaxed and original in its approach to interior space and design. Sometimes eclectic, generally exuberant, and often responding sensitively to the natural environment, the houses featured here inspire. Whether an opulent villa, a rustic timber cottage, or a sleek warehouse conversion that represents the best in modern Australian architecture, each of the houses has been chosen for its signature style. Together, they reveal the diverse pleasures of living in this exciting city.
