CELEBRATING 30 YEARS ^ 2019. Walan reimagines the subtropical, whole-floor apartment tower while celebrating Brisbane’s vernacular traditions. Discreet contemporary elements draw parallels to the historic Queenslander, its verandas, hallways, and ornate envelope. Louvred screens are employed to frame views, shade rooms, and draw breezes.
