Classic Traditional Homes

Traditional Style Homes vs. Modern Style Homes

Do you prefer warmer colour palettes or white neutrals? Do you like a maximalist styled home with colourful interiors (think Friends) or are you a minimalist?

Our classic, traditional style homes, like the Cranbourne at Googong, usually have more décor, stylised spaces, warm colour palettes and slight curves and angles. When McDonald Jones thinks of traditional homes, we think of our Global home styles. Reflecting a deep love for global adventure, these designs are rooted in admiration for the world’s many diverse cultures. A beautiful blend of worldly finds, earthy materials and exotic patterns is the perfect mix of a traditional home style with unique interior features.

Alternatively, our Classic designs also play with a traditional elegance amongst neutral colour palettes whilst maintaining a warm, clean and fresh environment for the whole family. For a modern take on luxurious classic design and architecture, try our Luxe designs

Modern Homes

Industrial Urban Homes

Do you prefer minimalism? Is your current home made up of whites, beiges and clean neutrals? Do you prefer the industrial, like the Sevilla at HomeWorld Marsden Park, Contempo like the Miami at Waterford Living, urban look, like the Havana at Forster? When it comes to modern homes, the style is much more minimalistic, with sharp edges and clean, functional living spaces.

Whether it’s a suburban family home, a double storey home with multifunctional living spaces, in the city of Sydney or a single storey home in the Hunter or Illawarra region, modern home design can be the perfect choice for first home buyers.
