Hobert in Tasmania is an English penal settlement from 1804. This research analyzes the design process of Hobert Government House by James Blackburn, who was sent to Hobert in 1833 as a convict and played a vital role in Tasmania as an architect after self-education. It became clear that the order of his four proposed design should be rearranged. In design process, composition of plans and elevations of his studies were refined from symmetry to asymmetry and styles were begun with Classicism, changed to Gothic and Italianate, returned to Classicism again, and finally ended with Gothic.
