  • Hot Spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra | South China Morning Post
    Hot spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra | South China Morning Post Hot spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra Stephen Lacey THE DINING ROOM. What is it? Canberra's newest hotel and arguably one of the most groundbreaking boutique developments in Australia for the past decade. Hotel Hotel is located on the first three levels of an architectural oddity, the NewActon Nishi building, which locals have dubbed "The Pineapple" due to its segmented, off-kilter façade (pictured). We aren't sure what the architects were smoking, but we definitely want to try some. You sound impressed. You betcha. For a start, the hotel says it embraces the princi-ples of sustainability, community and diversity (the Hotel Hotel people refer to their place as being for "people people"). And the Nishi building is a veritable "vertical village", incorporating luxury residential apartments, government offices, a "global" cinema, independent book and pop-up stores, cafes and bars. What's not to love? What about the design? It's so cutting edge it should come with a warning. Guests enter the hotel via a grand stairway of floating timber, some of it salvaged from the site the hotel was built on and an old sports court. Industrial materials, most prominently concrete, are used throughout the property. The concierge desk and the wall behind it are created from Ultrafloor (a concrete used in car parks) arranged as cleverly stacked beams, with the aggregate left exposed. Ditto, the ceiling of the lobby/dining room (pictured), which is simple bare concrete with circular voids cut into it to reveal the tree-fern garden in the atrium above.

  • Prime Minister's Lodge
    Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture RSTCA No: R006 Name of Place: The Lodge Other/Former Names: Address/Location: Adelaide Avenue and National Circuit DEAKIN 2600 Block 1 Section 3 of Deakin Listing Status: Registered Other Heritage Listings: RNE Date of Listing: 1984 Level of Significance: National Citation Revision No: Category: Residential Citation Revision Date: Style: Inter-War Georgian Revival Date of Design: 1926 Designer: Oakley & Parkes Construction Period: 1926-27 Client/Owner/Lessee: C of A Date of Additions: 1952-78 Builder: James G Taylor Statement of Significance The Lodge is important as the only purpose built official residence constructed for the Prime Minister or Governor-General and otherwise one of only four of their official residences in Australia. It is of historical significance as the official residence of almost all Prime Ministers since its completion in 1927. The Lodge is also associated with the development of Canberra as the national capital, especially the phase which saw the relocation of Parliament to the new city. The Lodge provides a suite of reception rooms in a building and setting of appropriately refined and dignified design, which demonstrates the principal characteristics of an official residence suitable for the incumbent of that office. The building is a fine example of the Inter-War Georgian Revival style of architecture, with features specific to that style, such as symmetrical prismatic massing and refined Georgian detailing. It is also significant for its associations with the architects Oakley and Parkes, who played a key role in the design of Canberra's permanent housing in its initial phase.

  • The Works Approval Process
    3 The works approval process Introduction 3.1 This chapter outlines the steps that Immigration Bridge Australia (IBA) would be required to follow in seeking consideration under the National Capital Authority (NCA) administered works approval process. Further discussion on whether the assessment of the bridge proposal may be required under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (the EPBC Act) is included. Indicative timelines for these assessments are also discussed. Particular focus is given to the consultation that would be required to accompany the proposal under each process. Lastly, the maintenance of gifting assets is discussed. Background 3.2 Designated Areas categorised under the National Capital Plan (NCP) embody the special characteristics of the national capital and so are preserved and enhanced in accordance with their character. 3.3 Further, under the requirements of the Australian Capital Territory (Planning and Land Management) Act 1988 (Cwlth) (the PALM Act), any works in a Designated Area are subject to approval by the NCA. 3.4 As the suggested location for the proposed bridge lies within a Designated Area, it is subject to the NCA administered works approval process. 3.5 In addition, as the proposed bridge may have a significant impact on Commonwealth land, it may also be subject to an additional assessment 34 INQUIRY INTO THE IMMIGRATION BRIDGE PROPOSAL by the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA) under the EPBC Act. 3.6 Assessment of the IBA proposal through
