Winners were announced on Saturday 24/10/2026.It is the second year in a row Trendsetter has won the category. In 2025 it won with a custom home in Marmion.
The award adds to The Grosvenor's win in the Contract Home $1 million to $2 million category at the 2026 Master Builders WA Awards in August.

HIA judges score entries out of 100: 50 points for workmanship, 20 for design effectiveness and sustainability, 15 for innovation and 15 for visual and market appeal.
