The Melbourne HIA Home Ideas Show

The Melbourne HIA Home Ideas Show held in April 2007 from 7 - 15, will be the first dmg world media show to include the fresh new program. The HIA will offer similar programs nationally via the HIA owned and operated Brisbane and Hobart Home Shows, and home shows in Perth. The alliance is a strengthening of the existing relationship between dmg world media, organisers of the world's largest, longest running and most successful home shows, and the HIA, Australia's peak industry association in housing.

The trade-only Building and Business Show will be co-located at each of dmg world media's home shows and will offer building and housing trade professionals a series of seminars and workshops presented by industry leaders. Trade will benefit from gaining free access to the consumer part of the show to experience the latest offerings for home building and renovation.

Content for the two-day show will include communication solutions, better business practices, on the site/in the workshop tips, design and innovation. Topics range from new trends and products to learning better business acumen. One-on-one consultations will be available all day with HIA professionals.

Homes Week 2007 will run for the five days prior to the start of dmg world media Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide home shows, offering content relevant to both trade and consumer audiences.

The week will specialise in new homes and residential renovations through presentations and features covering GreenSmart and water efficiency, careers and skills, innovation in the housing industry and new home building and renovation.

Visitors to the Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide home shows will also experience new permanent features to the show: HIA GreenSmart Building Zone, YouthBUILD house and, the HIA Kitchen Showcase.

GreenSmart will display a water conservation demonstration house with practical, cost effective options for reduced water usage, YouthBUILD will feature an eco-cottage built during the show by HIA apprentices. The HIA Kitchen Showcase will cater to the growing kitchen renovations market. Ten of the most cutting edge kitchens designed and installed by HIA members will be on display.
