Australian Interior Design Awards finalists announced: see the residential design shortlist

The finalists in the residential design category of 2014’s Australian Interior Design Awards have produced some pretty stellar houses and while the first question on my lips is “when can I move in?” for now I’ll have to settle for the photos!

Currently in their 11th year, the awards have made quite a reputation, with an impressive number of smaller practices competing alongside Australia’s more established design teams.

A favourite of mine has to be Place to Daydream by Tony Hobba Architects, a beach house that sits on the Victorian coast and seamlessly blurs together the indoor and outdoor space.
