Created By: University of Tasmania
Location: 262 Charles Street
Year: c1990
Architect: Robert Morris-Nunn
Style: Postmodernist
Notes: The horizontal banding of brick and stone and the curved façade that arcs into the entry evokes the architecture of James Stirling (refer to his Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart). Also note the downpipes at the sides. The best example of Postmodernist architecture in Launceston (the interior is interesting too, but its a working medical facility, so you'll have to wait until the next Launceston Open House to see inside).
This point of interest is part of the tour: Launceston Architecture B
