Perth and WA's unique swimming spots
Plus a dramatic, Karijini-inspired home part of this year's Open House.
We’re super excited to partner with the returning Open House Perth in 2024, running from November 9-10. It’s a unique opportunity to explore some of Perth’s most unique spaces, and we’ll be featuring the work of many of WA’s talented architects and designers in the lead-up.
Check out one of those houses down the bottom of this newsletter, which may or may feature a natural lap pool with fish!
