In this issue

We believe in the transformative power of good design.
For each issue, Grand Designs Australia TV show host and magazine editor-at-large, Peter Maddison, scours the countryside to bring you the most stunning designer homes, many of which have not yet been seen on TV, and tell the roller-coaster story of how design facilitates lifestyle. Our homes cover a diversity of styles and budgets; some new builds, some conversions and some renovations. Each issue is also a sourcebook of quality design, complete with floor plans, lookbook guides, designers, contacts and signature products to inspire a redesign of your own home
