The Adina Apartment Hotel in Brisbane, QLD is a luxury hotel that features modern comforts while preserving the elegance of the original heritage building.
Located on George Street, the 100-year-old heritage building, which previously housed the Queensland Government Savings Bank, was given a new lease of life with modern-day construction materials along with interior restoration and the addition of five new upper levels helping the transformation into a contemporary hotel.
An important aspect of the successful renovation of the heritage property is the way the additional levels have been given their own identity while referencing the heritage of the 1920s building below. The project, designed by TKD Architects, drew inspiration from the existing Art Deco period features, while taking the opportunity to add modern necessities such as larger windows and balconies to allow guests to maximise their enjoyment of the city and river views.
