The result was announced in front of an audience of over 1,300 of South Australia’s leading residential builders, designers, and manufacturers at the Adelaide Convention Centre on Saturday, 9 November 2024.
HIA South Australian Executive Director Stephen Knight said, “Adelaide Green Homes has truly raised the bar with this exceptional project. Every element of this home demonstrates outstanding craftsmanship, with a design that seamlessly combines beauty and functionality. This is more than just a residence — it's an iconic achievement in South Australian home building.”
“The attention to detail throughout this home is nothing short of extraordinary, with every finish and feature carefully selected to create a cohesive, luxurious space,” added Knight. “It’s a stunning display of artistry and meticulous workmanship, establishing a new benchmark for excellence in our industry.”
Without a doubt, this is a remarkable example of the exceptional quality and innovation available in South Australia and a testament to Adelaide Green Homes’ commitment to excellence.
The 2024 HIA South Australian Kitchen of the Year went to Build Theory, partnered by Caesarstone. The winning kitchen exudes warmth and comfort, expertly combining natural materials to create a space that feels both welcoming and sophisticated.
Featuring a contemporary yet timeless design, the kitchen boasts an integrated sink, innovative lighting, and an island that serves as the heart of the space. With a functional back bench leading to a hidden butler's pantry behind a sliding stainless steel screen, this kitchen sets a new standard in design and functionality.
Unique Space took home the 2024 HIA South Australian Bathroom of the Year, partnered by Routleys Bathroom Kitchen Laundry. Inspired by Japanese aesthetics, the bathroom is a masterclass in tranquillity and elegance, blending earthy tones with a furniture-inspired vanity and soft curves. Brick and tile elements add depth and texture, resulting in a space that is as inviting as it is visually stunning. The bathroom demonstrates the beauty of simplicity, setting a new benchmark for bathrooms in South Australia.
