Model Brick Home

Western Australia, Australia

Built in Floreat, Western Australia, the Model Brick Home is a Mediterranean Revival brick-and-tile dwelling designed by H. Howard Bonner in 1932. The house resulted from a competition for an ideal affordable modern brick home, and its realization in 1934 was made possible through donated land, materials, and labour. Now a State Registered Place, it stands as a heritage example of Depression-era ingenuity and accessible domestic design.
