The verandah is Australia's offering to the world of architecture: this is an extensive exploration of an Australian icon
This symbol of Australian life is a cultural and climatic response to how we live in this vast country of ours. From the slab huts of the first settlers to the glory days of the gold rushes, from the smallest shack to the grandest mansion, verandahs have evolved, adapted and flourished across diverse climates and varied historical periods.
In The Verandah, photographer Simon Griffiths takes us on a journey across our continent to capture the beauty and charm of this Australian icon.
Simon Griffiths is a lifestyle photographer who has provided photography for more than 70 illustrated books, including Australian Designers at Home (2019) and British Designers at Home (2020). He has travelled around the world shooting content for Stephanie Alexander and Paul Bangay. Simon is the author of Shack: In Praise of an Australian Icon, Shed and Boat. Thames & Hudson has previously published his books Garden Love
(2018) and The Kitchen Dresser (2022).
