The crème de la crème of residential construction across New South Wales has been announced at the 2025 HIA NSW Housing and Kitchen & Bathroom Awards.

The winners utilised warm, modern, soothing designs, with curved forms and natural materials taking centre stage.

"Across this year's NSW award winners, a few clear design trends are emerging," said Brad Armitage, HIA NSW Executive Director.

"Curved forms are very much in fashion, bringing softness and flow to kitchens, living spaces and furniture. Natural, neutral tones continue to dominate, paired with soft timber finishes that add warmth and texture.

"Overall, the winning projects combine modern elegance with inviting, livable elements that reflect current design preferences," he said.
