Lutetia is a prestige 5 apartment triple storey building that tries its best to revive the Tudor style in the 21st Century combining historical styles with modern living. While there has been no shortage of revivals of this style since its origins the 15th Century and the postmodern era, most would be classified as being pastiche, included in that category are many other recent mansions near to Toorak. This effort, while not historically accurate (the eclectic composition includes classical features) it is quite remarkable in its attention to detail.
Scots Church Hall: 99-101 Russell Street, Melbourne (demolished 2012)
Scots Church Hall: 99-101 Russell Street, Melbourne. Looking west from Russell Street median.

The three storey hall was built neighbouring Scots Church in the interwar commercial palazzo style in rendered reinforced concrete. It features a prominent piano nobile base with arched windows and keystones. It is currently destined for demolition, so I thought I’d make an effort to document it before the swing of the wrecking ball so to speak.
