Every space on this blog is carefully crafted by architects and designers, often in concert with homeowners and their own personal style. But we would not be able to feature them as we do without the help of luscious, textured, colorful photographs. The images in this post were selected from the portfolio of photographer Tom Ferguson. This Australia-based photographer has photographed many different design projects in his home projects and beyond. His photographs masterfully capture the vibrant colors of these homes that utilize large natural open spaces, plenty of greenery and modern lines.

This interior view, with a nearly panoramic look into the garden, is from a terrace house in the Paddington area of Sydney.

These shots are taken from a renovated terrace home in Randwick that's listed as part of that area's State Heritage.

The design for this bright and creative interior won the 2014 Belle/Coco Republic Residential Interior Design Award.

That comes as no surprise when you see the lovely interiors, freshly landscaped garden area, and clean, modern look.

This space is from a Darlinghurst Apartment, a 1915 apartment on the eastside of Sydney that was renovated.

The glass bulbs inside catch the color of the outdoor pool, making the whole kitchen feel as if its underwater.

This house also notably features a garden and exterior design from Brendan Moar, who chose the brilliant dangling plant life that overhangs the back patio.

This gorgeous brick house was renovated to give it a much more modern look, including this sleek fireplace.

This project, a residential home in Petersham, in Sydney's Inner West, features incredible floor to ceiling windows.
