Australian Architecture reflects the country’s unique cultural and environmental context. The architecture in Australia has evolved over time, influenced by the country’s geography, climate, and cultural history. Aboriginal architecture is the earliest form of architecture in Australia. With the arrival of European settlers, colonial architecture emerged, characterized by Georgian and Victorian styles seen in historic buildings such as the Old Melbourne Gaol and the Sydney Town Hall. In the 20th century, Australian architects began embracing modernism, reflected in landmark buildings such as the Sydney Opera House and the National Gallery of Victoria. Contemporary Australian architecture emphasizes sustainability, incorporating eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient technologies into their buildings.
