Interior Design of 31 Queen Street, Melbourne by Graypuksand. The brief for refurbishment of a building foyer and street façade such as 31 Queen Street is founded on the need to renew the commercial viability and asset value by ensuring existing and new tenants will remain occupied within the building.

The formation of a new identity or ‘address’ is essentially what tenants look for and building owners prescribe in the renewal process. As spatial constructs are more or less defined by existing parameters and the expected life span is approximately 15 years, refurbishment of the 31 Queen Street foyer space is akin to the approach of set design.

In this case the performance is the day to day activity of tenants within the commercial world. The city is now a 24/7 entity, where it’s important to ‘market’ such addresses outside of traditional building hours. Coming to life at night as a sculptural space to street view assists with the significance of the place.

A number of elements have been implemented to strengthen the building appearance form street view. Externally it has received a dynamic facelift with the installation of a sculptural canopy. Designed in association with artist and sculptor Dan Templeman, the new canopy provides a new identity and presence at street level.
