 An example of Gothic Revival, St. Paul's Cathedral in Melbourne, Australia Australian architectural styles have been basically exotic and derivative. Until recent times building styles were only slightly modified by climate, materials and skills. There was no indigenous architectural style or tradition to influence the ideas and knowledge that the British settlers brought with them when settling Australia from 1788. During the nineteenth century, Australian architects were inspired by developments in England. In the twentieth century, American and International influences dominated.

Australian Architectural Styles can divided into 2 main categories: "Residential" and "Non-Residential". Residential styles are the most prolific and account for the majority of the buildings constructed in Australia.
Buildings were frequently heavily influenced by the origins of their patrons, hence while the British would like to be reminded of their Gothic churches and Tudoresque cottages of a perfect England, the Dutch, German, Polish, Greek, Italian and other nationalities would also attempt to recreate the architecture of their homelands too.

Pre-Colonial Period 30,000 BCE - 1788 CE
 A 19th century engraving of an indigenous Australian encampment, representing the indigenous mode of life in the cooler parts of Australia before the arrival of Europeans The indigenous people of Australia are traditionally largely nomadic, ranging over an area, depending on the availability of particular foodstuffs that could be gathered at different times of the year. They managed the land through which they travelled by biennial burning-off which stunted the growth of forests and encourage grassland from which seed crops and kangaroos could be harvested.

The housing of the people first encountered by Europeans in the Sydney region was simple, shelters constructed of a semi-circle of stick, covered with large sheets of bark which could be conveniently stripped off melaleucca trees which grew profusely along waterways. Other types of simple structures were seen including lean-tos and in tropical regions raised sleeping platforms. Grass, leaves and reeds were used as a thatch where suitable bark was not available.
In the 1840s, the Victorian Protector of Aborigines, George Augustus Robertson described dry-stone dwellings in which the aboriginal people of Western Victoria lived in family groups or villages. His drawings passed into the Mitchell Library where they have been virtually ignored for 140 years by White Australians who have maintained the mistaken impression that all indigenous people were nomadic hunters and gatherers, that they did not manage the land that sustained them and that there were certainly nothing that one could describe as a permanent settlement. In fact, the stone dwellings of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people were known to the White settlers, but the knowledge was largely ignored, along with the brutal suppression and murder of Tasmania’s people. [1]
The Aboriginal people also built dry-stone Fish Traps, of which the most extensive, ranging over 500 metres, is on the Barwon River at Brewarrina. Its age is unknown. It has been maintained and rebuilt after floods many times and is said traditionally to have been given to the local tribes by the Creator Spirit.
It appears that in conjunction with such catchment schemes, there may have also been nearby sedentary settlements of people who maintained them. There is evidence at Lake Condah in Victoria of houses in conjunction with eel traps dating back about 8,000 years.
In January 2006, bushfires uncovered another nearby site of a village of stone houses that are large enough to have provided sleeping space for several families. [2]
Old Colonial Period 1788 - c. 1840 The first buildings of the British penal settlement in Sydney were a prefabricated house for the Governor and a similarly prefabricated Government Store to house the colony's supplies. Sydney was a tent settlement. Building anything more substantial was made unnecessarily difficult by the poor quality of spades and axes that had been provided and the shortage of nails. The convicts were able to adapt simple country techniques commonly used for animal shelters and the locally-available materials to create huts with wattle and daub walls. So useful were the local accacia trees for weaving shelters that they were given the name Wattle. Two roofing materials were available- there were extensive reed beds near the Cook's river for thatching and bark which could be peeled off a number of the indigenous trees in large sheets. Methods of heating and flattening the bark were used by the Aboriginal people. The resilient bark from the Iron-bark tree was adapted as a major building material everywhere that such trees grew. It was widely used as a roofing material, was weatherproof, insulating and could last for thirty years. Houses of axe-hewn slabs with Iron-bark roofs continued to be built in rural Australia until WWII. Wattle has several meanings: In engineering terms, originally wattle referred collectively to the flexible rods, branches or twigs from various plants woven together to make fences, walls and roofs (see wattle-and-daub). ...
At the time of the first settlement, Georgian architecture was the architectural vernacular in Britain. Craftsmen, including carpenters and plasterers were trained in the classic proportions associated with the Palladian style fashionable across Europe.

The early 18th century Colonial architecture in Australia was at first heavily influenced (as was architecture in Europe) by the Palladian revival ideals, later as elsewhere this was influenced by the neoclassical movement which began in Europe circa 1760, and slowly spread across what was regarded as the "civilized" world until it eventually reached Australia. Neoclassicism incorporated not only Greek influences but also Ancient Egyptian motifs.

The buildings erected in the first 50 years of Australian settlement were simple and plain. Convict huts, marine barracks, government stores and houses for officials were simple rectangular prisms covered with hipped or gabled roofs. Local wood was hard and difficult to work. Wattle and daub was formed from thin saplings and mud. Some pipe clay was obtained from the coves around Port Jackson. Bricks were fired in wood fires and were therefore soft. Lime for cement was obtained by burning oyster shells.

Colonial is the name given to some of the earliest types of housing to be built on the then, newly discovered Australian soil. Local materials were used as nothing but corrugated iron was imported from overseas and even this iron was not intentionally bought to Australia for use as a building material. Logs, tree branches and wattle and daub were used for the walls. Mud brick or stone were also used. Windows were usually small panes of glass. The layout was symmetrical, and very simple, usually containing only 2 to 4 rooms, however, the Colonial style later incorporated detached fireplaces, a central hallway, and verandahs to 3 sides of the building.

Victorian Period c. 1840 - c. 1890
Gothic Revival 1840 - 1880
The British Empire which at that time ruled Australia, was heavily influenced by the Anglican religion, which in turn was influenced by the 19th century teachings of the Oxford and Cambridge Movements which believed Gothic architecture to be the purest, truest form, and according to them, only way to achieve spiritual communication with God through architecture. Thus while a local magnate may have built his home in a classical style, he would fund a church in the Gothic style, thus during the 19th century, when Australia was expanding rapidly two forms of architecture were very evident - Gothic and the classically influenced styles. Originally Gothic was for God, and the classical for the man. Later a new "self made" Australian began to emerge, unhindered by a classical British education - dictating classical gentlemanly interests. This "new" self made man (like is contemporaries in England and America) would often choose Gothic as the design for his home.

The great Cathedrals of the Middle Ages during the Gothic Period of ecclesiastical architecture formed the inspiration for this particular Architectural style. Not only in residential buildings, but in many commercial structures and, Churches and Cathedrals built during this time. St. Paul's and St. Patrick's Cathedrals in Melbourne, Australia are excellent examples of the Gothic Revival Period. Often referred to as Victorian Gothic, deriving from the Victorian style Architectural name from a similar time period. Steeply pitched roofs often made of slate, Narrow doors and windows resolving in a classical Gothic pointed arch at their height,(known as lancet windows) diamond pane glazing to windows imitating a stained glass affect and intricate parapets, often of a religious nature bearing a cross resembling that of those atop Cathedrals and Churches. In non-terrace houses the drawing room was often pulled forward adding a bay window to the front of the dwelling. The Middle Ages formed the middle period in a traditional schematic division of European history into three ages: the classical civilization of Antiquity, the Middle Ages, and modern times, beginning with the Renaissance. ...

Early, Mid and Late Victorian 1845 - 1900 The Victorian Style in Australia can be divided into 3 periods to break up the whole; Early, Mid and Late. The period in its entirety stretches from 1837 to 1901 and was named after the then Queen of England, Queen Victoria. Early styles featured symmetrical layouts and façades, a centrally located front door and a hipped roof of corrugated iron, leading to a veranda on the façade. During the 1850s cast iron lacework came to Australia where it made its way on to Mid and Late Victorian Homes. With much the same floor plan as the Colonial Style, a central hallway with a standard 4 rooms. Weatherboards were used, however, larger homes had red brick and blue stone incorporated. Into the Mid Victorian Style the decoration began to gain popularity. The bull nosed Veranda roof was introduced, sidelights were added either side of the front door and terraced houses were springing up everywhere, containing parapets and detailed dividing walls between the property boundaries. Late Victorian Style homes had perhaps the most decorative features in all of the known Architectural styles to date, and it is often referred to as Boom Style. Towards the end of the Victorian era timber fretwork was being used more and more, which led into the Edwardian Style. The term Victorian architecture can refer to one of a number of architectural styles during the Victorian era: Neoclassicism Gothic Revival Italianate Second Empire Neo-Grec Romanesque Revival (Includes Richardsonian Revival) Renaissance Revival Queen Anne Jacobethan architecture (the precusor to the Queen Anne style) British Arts and Crafts movement painted...

Federation period c. 1890 - c. 1915 The principle styles of this period are: Queen Anne, Federation and Edwardian. Queen Anne can sometimes refer to houses loosely in the style of the arts and crafts movement, however, in Australian Architecture, it can also refer to some of the more elaborate Edwardian and Federation styles. Edwardian was named after King Edward (1901 - 1910) at the time, and the term Federation coincided with Australia becoming a nation of its own in 1901. The names all indicated very similar styles with features so minute separating them. Cream painted decorative timber features, tall chimneys and fretwork. Federation depicted a Tudor type look, especially on gables, and Edwardian gave a simpler cottage look.

Darker colours were originally used however, as the years went by, new brighter paint served as a welcoming change to open up the spaces and brighten up the homes.

Waterfall (Art Deco) 1940 - 1950
Fashionable modern houses of the thirties in the Streamline Moderne style were sometimes described as being like ocean liners, with walls, windows and balconies all sweeping around corners. By the 1940s these details were entrenched into suburban designs. The 'Waterfall' or 'Waterfall Front' style came to be known as such from the use of descending curves in chimneys, fence pillars and other vertical elements. Robin Boyd, the Australian architect and writer, noted that three was 'the key to decorative smartness'; three steps usually being used for the waterfall effect and featured parallel lines were often in threes.

Defining features of houses from this period are curved corner windows, including Venetian blinds, some rare examples of which are curved. With a slightly steeper pitched roof than the Early Modern Style, this style was generally of brick veneer cream brick but also could have dark brown glazed feature brickwork incorporated into the external walls, and under windowsills. Chimneys were either stepped or plain, and together with the round windows perhaps gave meaning to the "Waterfall" name.
Ecclesiastical, International, Melbourne Regional, Brisbane Regional and American Colonial were also styles which existed in the period 1940-1960.

Boyd's book Victorian Modern (1947) traced the history of architecture in the state of Victoria and described a style of architecture that he hoped would be a response to local surroundings as well as the popular international style. In particular he nominated the work of Roy Grounds and in some outer suburban bush houses of the 1930s as being the early stages of such a style. Grounds and Boyd later worked in partnership. This article is becoming very long. ...

L-Shape 1945 - 1955
This style represented a change in the overall floor plan, the plan resembling a large "L" Shape.

Timber or steel framed windows were used, and front facing fences resembled the house, much the same as had been seen since the Early Modern Period.
