Adaptive Reuse and Conservation
The building allowed the opportunity to reveal the old whilst featuring the new. New works such as doors and windows are detailed with the latest technology but importantly, they are made distinctly new. The site is comprised of a number of significant existing Heritage buildings, built in the 1880s, part of a larger group of buildings situated at the Stanley Street end of Logan Rd, that form a coherent precinct within Woolloongabba, Brisbane.
Great care was taken with the street façade. The design of the street awnings and shop front windows further enhance the dialogue with the precinct. The rear of the site had collected a lot of insensitive additions which were removed to reveal the essential heritage buildings.
The building is a benchmark project for the adaptive reuse of existing Heritage buildings in Brisbane. Care was taken to ensure the building was restored to its finest state with new elements added in a sensitive and respectful manner.
Interiors
The interiors derive strength from the beautiful existing brickwork walls which define a series of bays, strutted timber joists. New walls are lightweight panel systems constructed from naturally finished blackbutt timber. The new interior is predominantly timber creating harmony with the existing architecture of the building. Innovative acoustic solutions, in the installation of the level 2 floor and walls, have been employed to allow the expression of the original fabric to remain.
