10 Great Hotels Around the World for Architecture and Design - AFAR
"A stitched-together architectural plan links an 1841 former hospital, a 1937 art deco building, and a dramatic new glass annex to create interiors that let each wing’s history drive the decor—convict-hewn sandstone and restored fireplaces in the Georgian wing, blackheart sassafras–inlaid ceilings and geometric fixtures in the deco wing, and bright contemporary art and light in the modern extension. Rich Tasmanian woods and works by local makers populate the property, including a polished Tasmanian blackwood bathtub by Emanuel Oppliger in the St. David’s Park Suite and bespoke skincare such as a Leatherwood Honey Cream Bath; the hotel celebrates regional materials and artists throughout." - Nicholas DeRenzo
