Excellence in Fitout $5M-$10M
About the winning project
The Pentridge Adina Hotel fitout involved the design and construction of the hotel’s public areas, including the reception and lobby, level 1 conference rooms and pre-function space, while also completing fitout works within the existing prison facilities within Division B’s chapel, atrium lobby, Cell Bar, Annex Restaurant and Outdoor Dining and the ground and first floor amenities. This project formed part of the overall Pentridge Adina Hotel and Apartments project and is a part of the historic H.M. Pentridge Prison – founded in 1851 and closed in 1997. It is recognised by the National Trust as a place of state significance and is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register as “the most well-known and used gaol in the state’s history”. Original elements from the site were incorporated in the design and construction, including the existing bluestone interior walls. These elements provided challenges in how to integrate the new structure with the Heritage listed components.
