Our latest roundup showcases innovative Australian homes, including a house with a fish-pond atrium and a residence with a faceted black-metal extension.
Mostly located in Melbourne and Sydney, these eight homes are united by their sculptural designs.
While some have unusually shaped floorplans, others use detailed facades, cantilevers, roof cutouts and geometrical aluminium awnings to create eye-catching details.
Read on for eight examples of sculptural Australian houses from Dezeen's archive:

Peninsula House, Flinders, by Wood Marsh
Designed to echo Australia's "windswept" coastline, this home south of Melbourne has curving walls of charred timber and rammed earth.
Local studio Wood Marsh also drew on meandering paths leading to the site when creating the shape of the house, which has a curving form with long "arms" wrapping a swimming pool terrace and a driveway. Find out more about Peninsula House ?

St Martins Lane, Melbourne, by Matt Gibson
This Victorian home in the South Yarra suburb of Melbourne was given a sculptural update with a faceted extension clad in black metal.
Architect Matt Gibson decorated the facade of the extension, which contains a living space, two bedrooms, a study and a cascading terrace, with a laser-cut pattern that references the original architecture of the house.
