The Lindrum site holds over a century of Melbourne’s history, evolving from its beginnings as the Griffiths Brothers warehouse in 1900, to a lively billiard hall managed by Dolly Lindrum, and later its transformation into the Lindrum Hotel in 1999. This iconic building, with its red brick façade and Arts & Crafts detailing, stands as a rare example of the American tall-arched Romanesque revival style—a distinctive Edwardian-era architectural style that has become part of Melbourne’s cultural landscape.

In our redevelopment for , we prioritised preserving the historic façade and architectural elements while integrating a modern office space that complements the building’s character. The façade retention features carefully crafted steelwork that supports the original structure, and our digital engineering expertise enabled a point cloud scan of the existing façade. This ensured seamless integration with the retention steel and new building model, avoiding clashes during the design phase.

This project embodies our commitment to the stories, people, and places that have shaped the city, ensuring that the Lindrum site will remain a vibrant part of Melbourne’s future while paying tribute to its storied past.
