The company was co-founded by engineer Paul Sathio and architect Iwan Sunito in 1996.

In 1994 Iwan Sunito established his own architecture firm, Joshua International Architects which was in 1996 amalgamated with two business partners, including current Chief Executive Officer Paul Sathio, to form Crown Group.

In August 2023, a provisional liquidator was appointed on just and equitable grounds to sell the assets of Crown Group and distribute surplus cash to the shareholders.[7]

In March 2025, CII Group Pty Ltd, the shareholder vehicle of Iwan Sunito was placed in full liquidation, removing his interest in Crown Group.[8]
