Features: While Australian architecture shares common characteristics, defining its style is challenging. Whether in the tropical Queensland or the inland city of Melbourne, architectural designs demonstrate a conscious understanding of the site. This reflects the deep research within the architectural field on environmental culture and natural factors, particularly evident in the use of climate and energy. This book introduces new works from some of Australia's important architectural design firms, including public buildings, transportation structures, sports facilities, commercial and office buildings, and educational buildings. The selected works distinctly showcase the diversity of Australian architectural design in terms of region, function, and style.
