Perth's Gold Boom Brick and Stone Architecture

Discover the best gold boom stonework and brickwork in Perth.

Join us for an insightful and illustrated exploration of Perth architecture, as we examine remarkable examples of design, construction, and the conservation of materials and craftsmanship. We’ll highlight the enduring legacy of gold boom buildings, many of which are still in use today or have been thoughtfully adapted for new purposes within the vibrant landscape of the City. Discover how these architectural treasures continue to shape our urban heritage and contribute to the character of Perth’s built environment.
