Every year things seem to get bigger and better, thanks to the sponsors, building owners and volunteers that help make everything possible. This year we are joined by over 40 new locations which include a mixture of WA icons and amazing homes. As Perth gets larger, blocks seem to get smaller, but our homes seem to get bigger and bigger... Did you know we now have more bedrooms in WA than we have people? It is a scary statistic! We are bombarded with the message that bigger homes are a better investment - but are they? This year we have included several homes that show its not about how much space you have, but how you use it. Homes that use reclaimed materials, small blocks and landscaping to make the most of their location, readily available materials and passive design principles. Homes that make good design available to all, and remind us it’s not about the money you spend or the size of the space, but working with what you have to make your vision a reality. This years Open House has so many great destinations to explore we hope you join us in all Perth has to offer this November 11 and 12!

We are a not-for-profit organisation that LOVES local design and want to share it with you - completely for free during our event weekend November 11-12! Read the Event Guide and Website Carefully. While Open House Perth would love to unlock all our destinations over the whole event weekend, unfortunately this is not possible. Please look up each destination for the dates and times of their opening hours, so that you don’t miss out. How do I get inside? Look out for an Open House Perth banner, poster or one of our friendly volunteers. If you want to visit a destination that requires booking (or ballot) this must be done through our website - you will receive confirmation a few days prior to the event. Some like it hot! Remember it can get pretty hot in November, so if you are out and about don’t forget to slip, slop, slap, and drink plenty of water. So many destinations, so little time... We recommend you plan ahead of time - with 105 spaces to see it’s a good idea to make a list of your favourite destinations and when they are open. Limited capacity Unfortunately some destinations simply can’t fit everyone. If you are super keen to see something get there early. Be in the loop For all the latest event information and weekend updates stay tuned to Open House Perth social media or subscribe to our e-news. ARCHITECTURE How do I get around? Where do I park? INTERIORS Please remember that some of our destinations, particularly homes, have limited RESIDENTIAL parking. We recommend you carpool, or better yet walk, ride or catch public transport. Travelling with Uber is another great way to get around (no parking, no problems!) Don’t worry, be happy! 0439 405 207 Our volunteers and organisers are helping out because they love the city.

Introduction THE INVENTORY The Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (the MRA) is responsible for the urban renewal of the Central Perth Redevelopment Area (the Redevelopment Area) and proposes to recognise and afford protective measures to those places that have cultural heritage significance. The Central Perth Redevelopment Scheme (the Scheme) empowers the MRA to compile and maintain a list of Heritage Places and Precincts, called a Heritage Inventory (HI). The Central Perth HI has been developed in accordance with the provisions of the Heritage of Western Australia Act 1990, which requires all Local Governments to compile an inventory of heritage places as the foundation of sound local heritage planning. As MRA assumes responsibility as the planning authority within the Redevelopment Area, the MRA is acknowledging its role and responsibilities in “recognising, promoting and protecting” the cultural heritage that falls under its jurisdiction, as articulated in the State Cultural Heritage Policy.

    Welcome to the Icons of Influence trail When John Septimus Roe first laid out the city of Perth in 1829, he envisioned a powerful city at the centre of a strong, progressive economy. St Georges Terrace was the focus of this design, a broad avenue running parallel to the shores of the majestic Swan River. Pre-eminent early settlers built their residences along the Terrace and many significant civic buildings were also erected here. St Georges Terrace continues its central role as the city’s Icons of powerhouse today. Follow this trail to investigate the history of the city through its iconic places of influence. As you walk along the trail, keep your eyes out for Influence plaques placed in the pavement, in recognition of many people who have influenced the growth of Perth and Perth’s powerful people and Western Australia. places in history 1 Perth Town Hall Corner Hay and Barrack Streets This self-guided trail will take up to two hours.

  • Supreme Court Gardens
    Supreme Court Gardens The area in which Supreme Court Gardens now sits was the original Port of Perth. Complete with buried jetties the port now lies under landfill which was started in about 1880. Although the enclosure was still described as a 'waste land' in the 1920s, photographic evidence from the early 1900s indicates that some effort had been made to improve the grounds, with grass lawns and perimeter plantings of trees and shrubs such as Washingtonia palms. The Old Court House Law Museum The Old Courthouse is the oldest building in central Perth. In 1837, eight years after the European settlers first arrived, Western Australia's first Supreme Court was opened in what is now known as Stirling Gardens. Designed by Henry Reveley, the colony's first Civil Engineer, and completed in 1837, the building, described as "chaste and appropriate", cost £698 to build. During its early life, the building was used for many other purposes, serving not only as a court room, but also as a church, school, theatre, concert hall, immigration depot and community centre. Stirling Gardens Stirling Gardens were first used by colonial botanist James Drummond as an acclimatisation garden in the 1830s. Many of the current mature trees were raised from seed here, along with grapes and other overseas fruits which were tried for their suitability for the Western Australian climate in this spot. In 1965, after the Botanical Garden had been moved to a more spacious site in King’s Park, Stirling Gardens were reworked with Toodyay stone retaining walls and shallow pools which were designed by the City of Perth Parks and Gardens Department.
