description: Atelier Apartments & Offices is an urban mixed use redevelopment incorporating office space together with residential apartments and car parking.
The redevelopment includes careful renovations to the 1830s fabric and judicious editing of the worst of the 1960s additions, recycling the best parts of these old structures, and the creation of spaces and opportunities for the new component parts: a mixed use of offices, roof gardens, car parks and residential units.
Atelier’s new design concept based around an old heritage building, demonstrates the potential for modern architecture and heritage renewal in the Launceston CBD.
