About The Local Project

The Local Project is one of the fastest-growing premium architecture and design media businesses, operating across Australia, New Zealand and North America. We celebrate extraordinary local design and its global impact through editorial, digital, video and documentary content, reaching over 100 million impressions per month.

We are recognised by the industry for our craft. In 2025 we were awarded Publication of the Year, Publishing Company of the Year, Publish Leader of the Year, and Special Edition of the Year at the Mumbrella Publish Awards.
