A carefully curated range of quality inclusions.

All inclusions within our homes have been hand-selected by our interior design team to carry the high-quality standard and design aesthetic expected at Thomas Archer. Externally, materials and finishes are chosen for their beauty and long-term practicality whilst our array of internal selections provide a more opulent level of style that we personalise to our clients' taste. Find out more about a few of our standard features below.

Take a Look at Our Designer Inclusions:

Rendered Aerated Concrete Panelling

Beautiful and practical, the aerated concrete panelling used externally throughout the ground floor of our homes combines both function and form whist delivering supreme thermal and acoustic benefits. The modern aesthetic is enhanced as we apply three alternative render colours to your home as standard. This creates depth, interest and stand out for the right reasons.

Colorbond Roofing

The streamlined, modern appeal of Colorbond roofing completes the look of our Expressions Series designs. With sleek lines and a contemporary range of colours to choose from, Colorbond adds a modern aesthetic that complements each home.

Stone Benchtops

One of the most appealing features a home can have is stone benchtops. From the tactile feel to where and how it is placed stone benchtops are the finishing touch to your kitchen and bathrooms that will leave a lasting impression.

Aluminium Windows

All Thomas Archer homes are thoughtfully designed to welcome an abundance of natural light, creating a strong sense of connection to the outdoors. High-performance aluminium windows are carefully integrated to support thermal efficiency, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round. Combined with smart design and quality materials, these features contribute to a 7-star energy rating, delivering a light-filled home that’s both energy-efficient and cost-effective to run.

Premium Appliances

Fisher & Paykel appliances come standard in our Expression Series homes, with Miele appliances specified for our Landmark Custom range. Both brands are selected for their exceptional quality, advanced innovation and sophisticated design.

Designer Tapware

Never underestimate the effect well considered tapware can make to a room. Choosing the right style and colour can make a large impact to the overall aesthetic of your home. That’s way we have a range of designer tapware for our clients to choose from in a selection of contemporary colours.

Porcelain Tiles

Porcelain tiles bring the advantage of beauty and durability. They are hard wearing with high endurance, scratch resistant and less water absorbent, making them a dream for wet areas. With an endless array of options to choose from, you will be able to enjoy the benefit of these for years to come.

Engineered Oak Flooring

Our curated range of engineered oak flooring offers an inviting and distinctive addition to your space, combining durability with easy maintenance. Additionally, the inclusion of premium engineered oak flooring can increase the overall value and appeal of your home.

External Doors

At Thomas Archer, we understand the importance of a visually striking and functional entryway for a property.

Design Trends from the 2025 Decor & Design Show

At this year’s Decor & Design show, a familiar yet enduring theme continued to shape the conversation, one of comfort, calm and a deeper connection to the natural world. While not a new direction, this ongoing shift is still very much a response to the way our lives and our homes, have evolved in a post covid world. As we continue to navigate complexity and pace in our everyday lives, design is offering a counterbalance. The focus remains on slowing down, grounding ourselves and creating spaces that feel warm, reassuring and authentically lived in. 1. A Return to Warmth Gone are the cooler, more clinical palettes of recent years. In their place, we’re seeing a return to traditional, earthy tones that create an immediate sense of comfort. Colours like sage green are leading the way evoking stability, calm and a gentle connection to nature. This soft, muted hue brings a nurturing presence, quietly grounding us within our homes. Paired with natural textures and tonal layering, this shift toward warmth is being embraced across colour schemes, furniture finishes and styling details. Earthy browns, muted terracottas and creamy neutrals are working together to create spaces that feel lived-in, inviting and emotionally resonant. 2. Soft Shapes & Sculptural Curves Organic, sculptural forms are also making a strong statement. From curved joinery to sculptural bedheads and arched mirrors, these shapes introduce movement and softness, adding visual interest without overwhelming the space. We’re seeing this echoed in everything from lighting to couches, where curved silhouettes are used to guide the eye and enhance the overall flow of a room. These shapes not only look beautiful, but they also contribute to a sense of ease and approachability. 3. Mid-Century Moments Mid-century modern design is enjoying a new wave of popularity but with a contemporary twist. Think subtle timber finishes, minimalist lines and functional pieces that double as sculptural art. Creams, walnut tones and clean profiles nod to the era, but they’re now being softened with layered styling, natural textures and modern finishes. The result is a look that balances nostalgia with relevance; it's timeless yet very much of the moment. 4. Furnishings that Invite You In In a time where people are seeking comfort and stability, the way we approach soft furnishings is shifting. No longer just finishing touches, items like cushions, throws and upholstery are becoming showpieces drawing you into the room and setting the emotional tone of the space. From oversized boucle sofas to textured linens, these elements are designed to feel warm, grounding and tactile. It's part of a broader movement toward spaces that feel nurturing and considered, where every detail is chosen not just for how it looks, but how it makes you feel. We’re excited to see how these ideas continue to shape the way we design and live in 2025 and how they’ll be interpreted in the unique, personal spaces we create for our clients.

Inspired Spaces, Intuitive Art: A Conversation with Tegan Lloyd

At Thomas Archer, we’ve always held a deep appreciation for Australian art and the incredible creatives behind it. So, it’s especially meaningful when those passions align with the people we design and build for. Recently, we had the pleasure of sitting down with contemporary artist and Thomas Archer client, Tegan Lloyd. Tegan’s work is a thoughtful interplay of colour, texture and emotion. Inspired by the Australian landscape and the quiet beauty in everyday moments, her expressive pieces reflect a fluid, intuitive process. We loved working with Tegan on her home and equally loved hearing more about the creative journey that shapes her work. Q: Tell us about your creative process? Tegan: ‘I like to ease into the process with music on and a nice glass of tea, allowing the space to feel relaxed and calm. I usually begin by intuitively painting the background, exploring and playing with colour and texture and then come back in with more intentional marks as the work begins to take shape. One of the things I love about having a home studio is being able to bring pieces into different spaces around the house. Seeing them in different light helps me understand what areas might need more work before they feel finished.’ Q: What inspires your art? Tegan: ‘I’m really inspired by colour found in nature, especially the Victorian coastline and the hilly landscapes where I grew up. I also find inspiration in the beauty of everyday things around me such as fashion and nature. My home studio has become a huge source of inspiration too. It’s light-filled and spacious, which allows me to create larger works. Our home incorporates lots of natural materials and that sense of warmth and texture definitely feeds into my art.” Q: You create such beautiful abstract pieces, what draws you to create this style of artwork? Tegan: ‘For me, painting is like therapy. With a busy family life, being able to step into my studio and paint takes me into another world. It’s calming and meditative.' Q: What do you hope people feel when they experience your paintings in their own spaces? Tegan: "I hope my work brings a sense of calm and tranquility. That’s what it brings to me and I hope others can feel that same energy in their own homes.” Q: What is your advice for people when selecting artwork for their home? Tegan: “It’s so important to choose something you truly love and connect with. Think about the space it will live in and the kind of energy or feeling you want to bring to that room. For example, in a bedroom you might want something calming, while in an entertaining space, something more playful or bold might be perfect. Art can also tell a story or become a beautiful conversation starter, it should be something that feels meaningful to you.” View our interview with Tegan here For more about Tegan's artwork visit: https://teganlloyd.com

Soft sheers create a relaxed, ethereal look and are perfect for those who love natural light but still need a level of privacy. 2. Natural and Textured Fabrics For 2025, window furnishings are defined by the luxurious textures of natural fabrics.
