Interesting segment on Better Homes & Gardens - thanks Cheryl for the video.

I checked out the the site. Well worth a look.

Go into the homes link and you are able to view all the styles. Click on the small thumbnail photos to view in a larger size and scroll through the shots for each house.

They look really impressive.

Australian House Styles - Research Task

Hi all,



I'm looking forward to your class presentations next week on your choosen house period.



Just a couple of followup pointers:
  • You should have choosen you preferred house style
  • Have two photocopies of this sample house - 1 painted in .. colour scheme & 1 painted in contemporary colour scheme.
  • Reseach the house style.
  • Your presentation should be no longer than five minutes and include an overview of the interior & exterior feature of this style. Also include influences that coccured at that time e.g. use of australian motifs during the federation period due to our emergences as a nation.

Please present your work in your folder on a black A3 sheet
